A beginner-friendly online hackathon on the theme 'Tech for Student & Community Life', judged by division. Open to: students aged 13+ (middle school, high school or college), teams of 1–4 in the same division; companies are excluded. Next step: join on Devpost, build an original project with a public GitHub repo and a 2–3 minute demo video. Catch: confirmed cash prizes are small (about $300); most of the stated prize value is credits and gift cards.
