You cannot start until after opening ceremony. You may come up with ideas, but are not allowed to start coding. You cannot work on a previous project, but can use frameworks if you clearly credit them in your readme and differentiate what you made vs what you used.
As many as you want!
No, you can leave and come back if you would prefer.
We will post the schedule closer to the event. There will be workshops and activities to take a break and meet other hackers and our wonderful sponsors.
A hackathon is an event where students "hack" together and create an app, website, game, etc. in 24-48 hours. There will be no malicious "hacking".
We do not have hardware available, but you are welcome to bring your own. Due to building fire codes, soldering kits are not allowed in the venue.
We will send out acceptances XX days before the event. If you need earlier confirmation to book travel, please reach out to our team at EMAIL ADDRESS. Applications will close once we reach the maximum amount of hackers we can support, but we will open a waitlist on the day of the event for any local hackers who want to fill the spots of any accepted hackers who do not end up attending.
