A 12 Hour hackathon to Collaborate and Build impactful software, presented by The Helyx Bioinformatics Intiative
Online
TBD (Mid April 2020)
A Hackathon, also known as a codefest, is a social coding event that brings computer programmers and other interested people together to improve upon or build a new software program The word hackathon is a portmanteau of the word hack,which means clever programmer and marathon, an event marked by endurance.The concept of the hackathon, also called a hackday of hackfest, was born out of the open source community.
How do you decide what to build and how to build it? Hear from experts on what happens before they start writing code.
Software takes a team. Learn how engineers work together to overcome technical challenges and efficiently build software.

A hackathon is a design sprint-like event in which computer programmers and others involved in software development, including graphic designers, interface designers, project managers, and others, often including subject-matter-experts, collaborate intensively on software projects.
A positive attitude and a will to learn would be nice. But, other than that, there is no programming experience requirement. Programmers with little to no experience are encouraged to come.
2-4 people in the single team
Unfortunately, Hack the Helyx will not be able to provide hardware accessories. However, hardware projects are welcome, but you must bring your own materials.
Food will be provided at our event.
Top 3 team will get a cash prize, Headout goodies, and every participant will get goodies and merchandise and it will be great learning experience for all.
No. Teams/Participants are not allowed to work on the project before the commencement of the Hackathon.
You get to learn new skills on-the-go,learn to debug errors efficiently,learn how to coordinate among a team and gain inspiration and ideas from other projects.
