• Scared?  Don't be...

     

       A half hack is a mini hackathon. If you've heard of a hackathon, it’s a much bigger deal and pretty intense with a technical push and competition. This Halloween Half Hack is a chance to get your feet wet with hackathons and experience all the fun without all the pressure. Learn how to code and build amazing things from scratch. We're here to help!

     

    We're here to spread learning, encourage sharing of knowledge, and more importantly increase your curiosity about technology!
