About the challenge

Welcome to Steast Hacks — the first-ever hackathon hosted at Stetson East!

This event is designed to give students of all experience levels a chance to build something meaningful, collaborate with peers, and learn full-stack development from scratch — all in one weekend. Whether you're a total beginner or a coding pro, there's something for you here.

From backend APIs to frontend customization, our workshops will get you up to speed and ready to create. Your goal? Build a tech-based project that aims to create real social impact. We want to see solutions that address local or global challenges — education, healthcare, sustainability, accessibility, anything that matters to you.

This is more than just a hackathon — it's a community of builders, dreamers, and donut lovers.
