Helix Hacks is a hackathon designed to inspire and empower young coders to pursue and develop their programming skills. Over the course of 30 hours, teams of 2-4 participants will work to develop a software project that helps to solve a real-world problem.

For more information, visit our website: helixycsp.org

Requirements

Submit your code via a github, repl, or other link. We also accept a zip folder, although a link would be preferred. 

In addition to your project files, please submit a pitch video that explains the problem that you are addressing, how your project solves the problem, the obstacles you faced, your next steps, and any other additional details. The video must be 5 minutes or less (few seconds over is okay). We will release a presentation guide closer to the hackathon date with more details and tips.
