During the hackathon

  • Stay on theme

    Projects should address Education - school or professional training - and at least one of the published problem statements (or several, if the fit is clear).

  • Build during the window

    Core product work must happen after kickoff. See the Participant Handbook for build and AI rules.

  • Submit on time

    Submit your public repository through the official form before the deadline. Late work may be disqualified.

  • Respect the room

    Keep volume reasonable, share space fairly, and report issues to organizers promptly.

  • Ask for help

    Mentors and organizers are here for product, technical, and logistics questions.

Project submission

Publish your project repository using the official submission form. Repositories must be public so judges can view your code and project.

Submit before the announced deadline. Incomplete or private repos may not be judged.
