FIRST MESSAGE · EVENT DISCORD OR TELEGRAM · TO THE HACKATHON ORGANISERS
Hi, I own a deployed app called Toll Booth on Base. Is it okay to extend it during the hackathon if I clearly disclose what existed before and only submit the new work? Thanks.
3. Plan a new feature for the weekend
40 minWrite down one new feature you will build during the event, for example a usage dashboard showing calls per agent. Keep it small enough to demo in two minutes.
4. Find one teammate
15 minPost in the event's team channel asking for one person with a skill you lack, such as design or frontend.
FIRST MESSAGE · HACKATHON TEAM CHANNEL · TO OTHER PARTICIPANTS
Looking for one teammate. I have a working Base app (Toll Booth) and want to add a usage dashboard showing calls per agent this weekend. Need a designer or frontend person. DM me.
5. Submit and demo live (takes nerve)
120 minRecord a two minute video and submit before the deadline, clearly marking what was built during the event. Prizes are never guaranteed, the shipping is the win.
