FAQ
What the heck is a hackathon?
A hackathon is a 24-hour long event where creators with different skills get together to work as a team and find creative solutions to problems. It's like a marathon for hacking and creating things. Whether you are a developer or not: you are welcome!
But I can’t hack, can I still participate?
Hackathons are not just for programmers or hackers. While programming skills can be useful, hackathons are also about collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving. You can contribute in various ways, such as through design, idea generation, project management, or even providing valuable insights and feedback.
Coaches and experts are available as well. Those can help you and your team with generating ideas, giving tips about i.e. designing, prototyping and developing.

When you bring together smart young people, often magic happens. It challenge each other, leverages each other skills and create friendships. You'll also get a lot of inspiration from what other teams are doing and learn new technologies.
