Requirements

What to Build

Build out your imagination! No specific theme is required as long as it is a web-based or digitally based application. This may include but is not limited to SAAS Websites, Ai based applications, etc.

 

What to Submit

Link to your project (Website, Github, Figma, etc)

*note that cross-submission of projects is allowed, as long as the other hackathons you are submitting to also allow this. 

In order to maintain fairness, our intention is for all participants start their projects from scratch. However, prior to that, you are welcome to engage in brainstorming sessions to generate ideas.
