What is a hackathon?

Hackathons are where creative and enthusiastic people come together to build awesome projects in a single all-nighter. With awesome workshops and incredible prizes, hackers will learn about new tech, build innovative solutions to real-world problems, and share their creation with the community, all in one event.
