It's free! Hackerspace and meals are provided at no cost to you!

I am a beginner. Should I participate?

Of course! Hackathons are some of the most rapid learning experiences you could hope for. Even if you are new to something, there are a host of hackers who are in the same boat, and experienced hackers who are ready to give you a boost!

What if I don't have a team?

We will be running team formation and ideation workshops at the beginning of the event to help you find others to work with.

A laptop computer, charger, and basic amenities such as a sleeping bag, pillow, and toothbrush and any other hacking supplies you need!

Does SWHacks offer travel reimbursements?

We would love to, but we do not have a budget for travel reimbursements this year. We will try to offer them next time!
