Rules

The judges’ assessment of your hack will be determined based on the concept of your hack, its functionality, and the quality of your responses to topics that are covered in your video. Feel free to go over any topics that are listed below or ones that aren’t. This video is meant for your team to have fun and to show off your hard work! Remember, the only hard requirement is that your video cannot be any longer than 5 minutes. Best of luck!

Note: All participants are expected to abide by the following rules.

  1. We abide by the MLH Code of Conduct
  2. Everything posted here on Devpost (write-up, video, code, website, etc.) can be edited until the final project deadline at 10:00 am CDT on April 7th. Late submissions will not be accepted, so submit early and update with final changes as the deadline approaches.
  3. Every submission must have a video demo attached to it. There is a required field on the submission page for linking to this video. You can upload any video as a placeholder here until you can record your own video. You can record a video using free software like Open Broadcast Studio, the Google Chrome plugin: Loom, or even Zoom!
  4. Judging will be asynchronous, meaning that judges will only see your write-ups and demo videos. Make sure to make everything neat so that judges can easily find the information about your projects.
  5. You are only allowed to submit projects made during PickleHack, and no projects may be submitted at other events (multiple submission is grounds for disqualification).
  6. You are welcome to use free, open-source libraries available to all participants, but passing off other people's work as your own will be considered plagiarism and is grounds for disqualification.
  7. Group sizes are limited to 4 members.
  8. You must check-in in-person in the Innovation Lab between 4:00pm - 6:00pm CT on April 5th, 2024 for your project to be considered.
  9. You must attend the closing ceremony in-person in the Innovation Lab between 2:00pm - 3:00pm CT on April 7th, 2024 to receive any prizes won.
