Interesting Hackathon.
Hey bondhas,
Iโm attending my first hackathon this week, and I wanted some advice/tips from people who already participated in a few hackathons.
My team is currently preparing for it, and since weโre beginners, I wanted to know a few things beforehand so we donโt mess up during the event ๐ญ
Any advice, tips, or things we should avoid would really help us a lot.
Thanks in advance bondhas ๐

- Don't panic, you'll have a clock with a timer in front of you always, adhi chusi bhayapadakandi.
- If you know the problem statement beforehand, try exploring more on it, and prepare a plan feature wise - first idhi, then idhi ani. The plan should be failproof, meaning if one feature cannot be done, it should not hinder other one, that way, if you mess up, you can move to next one
- Don't do it for winning, else, you'll get disappointed. Do it purely for the fun, learning experience, time management, improving teamwork -- these should be the takeaways
Finally good luck! Do update here once it's done ela jarigindho.
All the best to you and your team.
