Requirements

This hackathon is for middle and high school students aged 18 or older. Teams can have 1 to 5 members, and you can participate from anywhere in the world. You need to submit a 5-minute video that covers the problem you're solving, a walkthrough of your code and tech stack, a demo of your project, and how it can scale. If you advance, you'll participate in a live Q&A with judges.
