New Event: York Hackspace inaugural Hackathon (aka the Finish-a-thon!) 28th July

5 June 2018 photon ical

If you’re anything like us, you have a pile of half-finished projects (or half-baked ideas) sitting around gathering dust.

That’s why we are having a one-day community Hackathon and the theme is Finish a Project! Don’t worry if you have a huge project that might take longer to finish, just finish a part of it. The event is free and open to everyone to attend, if you don’t have a project you can help someone else.

The event will take place from 10AM to 10PM on Saturday, 28 July at the ‘space.

The day will kick off at 10am with (free!) breakfast, followed by a chance to tell everyone what your plan is for the day, and perhaps canvas some help!

Feel free to pop in and out throughout the day.

What can you work on at the hackathon?

You can work on anything, it’s a really open Hackathon.

Are you coding something you want to finish?

Want to fix a bug in an open source project?

Finish writing something, design something?

Finish a craft project you have lying around?

What should I bring to the hackathon?

Bring whatever you need, although the hackspace will have some parts/materials and tools available.

Bringing a laptop is a good idea.

This is a one-day event so be ready to take home what you make.

Hope to see you on the day! We have a facebook event here
