Hi, and welcome to Superclass at SIGNAL 2020! This README contains detailed information about much of the content and goings-on at Superclass this year. Read on for more information about hands-on activities, scoring XP, and much more.
Superclass is a choose-your-own-adventure learning experience, where you are in control of what and how you learn. During our four-hour sessions on days 1 and 2 of the conference, you will have the following activities available to choose from:
- Watch live stream sessions from Twilio developers
- Play TwilioQuest to learn about popular Twilio products and APIs
- Work through tutorials and deploy sample apps from the CodeExchange
- Seek 1:1 help with your specific questions using the SIGNAL Concierge
During your time with us, you are in the driver's seat about what to do, and how to do it. Want to sit back and watch a seasoned developer use and explain Twilio API products? We've got you covered with live streams. Prefer to get hands-on and try the APIs yourself? TwilioQuest and Tutorials/CodeExchange are the way to go. Have a question you want to dig into with a Twilio expert? The SIGNAL Concierge is the place to go.
Read on for more details about the what, where, and how of Superclass!

After every live stream session, we'll give out a secret code used to unlock a chest in the new bonus mission in TwilioQuest. As new codes are revealed, we will add them to the table below!
NOTE: The chest for the Gridspace sponsored points/item was supposed to be opened with a code in their sponsor PDF, however, that PDF has now changed. The code to open the Gridspace chest is gridspace_offers_free_trials
