There are many community-based creative projects that people can participate in. Some of these are competitions with strict rules. Others are just prompts to inspire you over a given period of time. Some are for coding, others for music, writing, drawing or … whatever.
As for the links, I tried to find some that were the most informative if not completely “official” in every case. I’m happy to update any of the below info or make additions.
