In the context of a hackathon, the word "hack" is used to describe how multiple technologies can be used together in a new and innovative way. Teams of up to four people spend the weekend working on innovative software solutions to real-world problems. These projects range in platform and application, including elements of web development, mobile applications, and more. However, many times the most important aspect of a hackathon is the community it generates and skills that inexperienced hackers walk away with.

Envision is built upon the idea that everyone should be able to participate, from individuals who have never written a line of code to experts who have been developing for years. To help facilitate the learning experience, we've compiled a number of resources to help during the weekend. In addition, we'll be offering a series of tech talks throughout the event.
