What to Build

Working prototypes are required for submission. Start by identifying and building your core, critical technology that makes your idea special. Follow this by building out the overall experience, demonstrating how a user might use the product. Think also about how this idea could be scalable past just a hackathon, and how it would work as a business.

What to Submit on Devpost

On Devpost, here are some suggestions for what to submit:

  • Problem that you are trying to solve and its significance
  • Inspiration for solution
  • How the solution is special / novel / unique
  • How the product is meant to be used
  • The technologies or techniques used
  • Key challenges
  • The product as a business and/or at scale

You are also recommended to include photos, videos, animations where appropriate. If possible, a link to a demo is also recommended!

Judging Exhibition

The judging will be carried out via an exhibition that will take place on day 2. Each team will be given a table to setup a booth on, and the judges will come to your booth. The presentation format is entirely up to you. Engage the judge!
