Requirements

WHAT TO BUILD

Any CS/STEM-related project of your choosing. 

WHAT TO SUBMIT

Create a video that encapsulates the things that you are building and submit that alongside a working code repository. Please try to include version history if you use a platform such as GitHub, as that will make it easier for us to authenticate that the code is written by you. 

*Remember your project has to have been created during the hackathon timeline (PST). Cross submissions are allowed to this hackathon, but the project should be built within these dates.
