When: Fri, Sep 18, 2020, 9:00 AM – Sun, Sep 20, 2020, 5:00 PM CDT
Registration: sign up here
This hackathon is a celebration of diversity. Anyone who supports diversity is welcome — no matter your level of technical knowledge.
We are providing a virtual space for people of all backgrounds who want to start building their tech portfolio or finish up a tech project while learning new skills. Previous experience in tech is NOT required.
Plus, we have a parallel FREE workshop track for anyone who wants to come and just start learning, learn more, or meet people.
Once you sign up, we will provide you a link to pitch your hackathon idea/see other people’s idea, and slack channel sign up link. See hackathon judging criteria.
Not sure what to work on? Join us for the pitch party on 9/18 Friday 7PM!
We encourage participants to look into open data or civic hacking projects, for more information check out Open Austin. Check past blog posts for ideas.
