What To Expect
What a hackathon weekend looks like
Every hackathon follows the same simple arc — from a blank editor to a live demo, with mentors and a room full of other builders the whole way.
Team Up
Show up solo or with a team. We help you find teammates and pick a project scope that fits a weekend — no idea required in advance.
Build, With Mentors
A full day of building, with mentors circulating to unblock you — on your stack, your idea, your pace. Beginners and veterans work side by side.
Demo, Live
Every team demos what they shipped. No slides required — just a working app. It's the fastest way to go from idea to something real.
The Track Record So Far
4,000+ builders have already shown up
