Hackathons

Throughout the Summer of Code there are 12 weekly hackathons, 3 monthly hackathons, and 1 all-summer hackathon. Participants may enter one or more.

The weekly hackathons follow the theme of the week's course module so Week 1 is "Introduction to Python", and the hackathon is for entry level Python hacks, and so on.

The monthly hackathon's follow the tracks so Month 1 hackathon is for Python hacks, Month 2 for JavaScript hacks, and Month 3 for all the AR, VR, and Blockchain hacks.

The all-summer hackathon is an open category so that those who have a project in mind can use the Summer of Code as an opportunity to develop their idea into a prototype or even an MVP and have a chance to showcase it.

Week 7

August 27 - 31 Self-care Week

Naming credits :)

Virginia Balseiro Self-care week Marta Bodojra​ Rest and empower week! Rox Arten​ Self Grounding and Empowerment Gillian Newton​ "Week of Sanity" "Week of Empowerment", "Re-factor Your Code" Krystal​ Re-Code Week? Catch-up week (Ketchup week) Paula Bernal Inner Coding Week Bituin Callanta​ Recalibration Week

The first benefit of a self-care week is that you have time for yourself and your coding.

There will be NO classes during this week, however, you are welcome to continue on material from previous weeks or to study ahead.

The second benefit is that the deadlines of the Week 6 hackathon and the Month 2 hackathon to reflect the addition of a week's time.

The third benefit is that Week 8 will be the mobile app prototyping week and you will have until Week 13 to giving you 5 weeks instead of just 1 week polish your mobile app, and work on your JavaScript skills before we dive into React.js. This is perhaps the greatest benefit.
