A week for high-schoolers to go from blank canvas to working demo. Two tracks: Technical(build a project), or Non-Technical(pitch an idea). Food and prizes included.
[ choose one at check-in ]
Ship a working build. Web app, game, model, hardware hack — anything you can demo. Come with a team or form one on the spot, then code from kickoff to submission.
No code required. Identify a real problem, design a solution, and pitch it. Wireframes, research, and a sharp story beat a half-built app every time.
Sign up solo or with a team of up to three.
Opening ceremony, theme reveal, and track selection. Mentors introduce themselves and tables open.
The main event. Hack or shape your pitch, hit the workshops, grab food, and get unblocked by mentors.
Submit, present to judges, and watch the best projects take the stage. Awards close out the weekend.
