Wacode is a 36-hour in-person hackathon in Waco, Texas. Our goal is to contirbute to our local communities using our technical skills and abilities!

Throughout the event, we will have several talented speakers and industry professionals presenting on a wide variety of topics. Everything from the fundamentals of software design to niche technologies to professional teamwork and networking skills!

The bulk of the event is you working with your team to make an amazing project! Want to build an app? Go for it! Been itching to try out a new technology? No time is better than this! Want to get your hands dirty with a hardware project? All you!

The culmination of the event will be you presenting your project to a cohort of your peers and our wonderful sponsors. Practice your presentation skills and own your awesome project! The best projects, as determined by our judges, will even earn prizes!
