Hackathon Reminders

Hi everyone! A few quick reminders:

* Prototype: By 6 PM today, you should have a basic working prototype ready to demo to mentors.

* Devpost: Project submissions are open! Feel free to start drafting your submission there.

* Slides: Start preparing your presentation. Feel free to use AI tools to create your slides.

* Room change: We’ll move to Room 209A at 6 PM.

* Coffee: Coffee is now being served in the Hackathon Lounge (I know I need one! 😅).

Submission reminders:

You’ll need three things:

1. Presentation slides

2. Demo link to your working app. I recommend Vercel for easy hosting.

3. Demo video: A short, 2-minute screen recording of your app in action. No need to include your slides! This will likely be the last thing you create.

Important notes for finalists:

If selected as a finalist, you’ll have 3 minutes to present your project using your slides. You’ll also be able to connect your own computer for a live demo.

The 2-minute demo video is only a backup in case your live demo doesn’t work.

Keep building, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need help! 🚀
