DelHack

   UD's premier student run hackathon, a 24 hour [caffeine-fueled] programming event, founded by developers and created for developers. It's not an event meant for breaking into systems or hacking into software - it's about putting something together and scrapping an idea with minimal resources in an incredibly small amount of time. 

   We're a community of builders. We strive to make DelHack an event that will provide an outlet for students to strengthen their technical abilities, develop or discover new ones, and to work on technical projects relevant to their own interests - whether it be hardware or software. It's a place that's meant to turn an idea into a reality, challenge your best abilities, and push you to learn something new...all within 24 hours.
