Points are awarded for things such as attending a presentation or completing tutorials on SAP Community. Prizes are awarded based on badges earned and associated points accumulated.

But the fun doesn’t end there. We have an animated Contest Gameboard to help you track your progress through the contest.

And if you are curious how we built the animated gameboard, we have also released the whole thing as a Sample Code repository here: https://github.com/SAP-samples/sap-community-activity-badges
