OneHacks is a 48-hour online hackathon open to all high school students from August 5th to August 8th all over the world. Since our own experience with hackathons, we've decided to spread this same opportunity to other high school students interested in software design. Our mission is to provide aspiring coders more opportunities for software and career development, so you can take your projects to the next level and lead a more innovative future. We hope that by hosting a virtual hackathon, we can expose you to the deeper levels of technology, opening a new path for your STEM-related careers.
If you are experienced, or a complete beginner, we encourage you to join! You can take up to 3 other friends with you and join as a team. There will be many workshops and speakers for anyone to learn more about computer science. This field can be for everyone; it requires passionate students to be creative and think outside the box.
Important Note: With the increasing prevalence of non-original project submissions, including projects created by AI, random participants may be selected to explain a certain section of their code. For more detail, please refer to OneHack's Integrity Policy.
