Questions you will meet, answered honestly

What have you built before?

Two or three links with a sentence each on your part in them.

Do you have a team?

Say so either way; many events help solo participants find a team.

What reviewers of hackathons look for

  • Apply with links to things you have built; organisers want people who will ship something.
  • Read the tracks and sponsor prizes in advance and pick one problem to aim for.
  • Plan the demo: a short video and a clear readme often matter as much as the code.
