Tracks

Pipe Dream

🚀

Dream big. Think of something people say is too ambitious, too unrealistic, too early—and do it anyway. This is for the boldest, wildest ideas you've got.

Origin Story

📖

Tell us your story. Build something tied to a problem you personally understand—whether it affects you, your family, or your community. We want to know the why.

Built Different

💎

Solve any problem you want, in any field you want. All that matters is how well you do it. Sleek UI, tight code, technical finesse—everything involved in building something really fucking good.

The Anti-Track

🧑‍🔬

Build something stupid, silly, and utterly useless. Under no circumstances should it solve any problems. Maybe it even creates one. Be funny.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your laptop, chargers/cables, anything for your hack (hardware?), water bottles, and all the creativity you can find!
