*What is a Hackathon?*
A hackathon is like a fun competition where people come together to create something new using technology. It usually lasts for a short time, like one or two days or a few hours. Here's how it works in simple terms:
1. People Join in Teams or Alone
Anyone interested can join—some come with friends, while others meet new teammates at the event.
2. A Challenge or Theme is Given
The organizers usually give a topic or problem to solve, like "make an app that helps the education."
3. Brainstorming Ideas
Teams think about what they want to build—this could be a website, an app, a game, or even a robot! They quickly decide on the best idea.
4. Building Begins
This is the most exciting part! Everyone starts working on their idea.
Coders write computer programs.
Designers make the app or website look nice.
Other team members help by planning, testing, and presenting.
5. Mentors Help Out
Experts walk around, giving advice and helping when teams get stuck.
6. The Deadline Arrives
Teams must stop working when the time is up (usually 24–48 hours).
7. Presenting the Project
Each team shows what they made. They explain how it works and why it’s useful.
8. Judges Choose Winners
A panel of judges checks each project and picks winners based on creativity, usefulness, and how well it works.
9. Prizes & Celebration
Some hackathons give prizes (money, gadgets, or job offers), but the best part is learning, making new friends, and having fun!
Even if a team doesn’t win, they leave with a cool experience, new skills, and sometimes even an idea they can turn into a real product later.
