Miami, it's time. We're throwing the city's very first Hackathon — and the only thing missing is you. It's beginner-friendly on purpose: no degree, no team, no idea required. We hand you the tools, pair you up, and by the time the clock hits 10:30 you'll have shipped something real.
Leading Partner
One track, one mission — design a fully working application and ship it off localhost to a public URL anyone can open.
Your first deployed app
For complete beginners. Design and build a fully functioning application and get it off localhost — onto a public URL anyone can open.
Doors at 4pm — build, demo, and celebrate till midnight
Get set up, learn the ropes, meet your people, and lock in your team. Zero experience needed — we've got you.
Heads down, hands building. Mentors floating around to get you unstuck and keep the momentum going.
Teams take the stage, show what they made, and we crown the winners.
Cool down, keep the conversations rolling, and toast to everything that got built tonight.
Bring your laptop and charger. Curiosity is the only real requirement.
The crowd filters the top apps for the judges, then the judges crown the winners — all run live in the event app.
The crowd votes to surface the top 5–6 apps. Teams split into Group A and Group B — one group demos while the other tests and votes, then they swap.
The judges crown the winners from the crowd's favorites. The 5–6 finalist teams take the main stage.
Because the app tracks everything on the backend, the leaderboard breaks ties instantly, in this order:
"The data is in. Out of all the teams who built and shipped tonight, here are the top finalists moving on to the pitch stage…"
No hand-counting — final scores compute the instant the Round 2 buzzer sounds.
Is the idea fresh? Judges reward apps that surprise them.
Does it work? A deployed, stable app beats an ambitious demo that crashes.
How deeply the agent thinks — tools, sub-agents, and prompts doing real work.
Clean, usable, presentable. A polished frontend earns bonus points from roving judges.
Would anyone use this tomorrow? Real problems score higher than toys.
4 required deliverables — submit your public URL before 9:00pm
Anyone can open the URL in a browser — no login required.
A real, deployed application that solves a recognizable problem.
Brief README — what you built, how you built it, what's next.
Earliest submission wins ties — don't wait until 8:59pm
Polished UI earns up to +2 bonus points from roving judges
Tip: Deploy early. A working URL at 7:30pm beats a broken one at 8:59pm.
Curiosity is the only real requirement
Dinner, snacks, coffee, tea, water — on us all night
Fast Wi-Fi, outlets, extension cords, comfy space to build
Floating mentors to get you unstuck whenever you need
