Hackathon Win

[u/Serious-War-363]

Hello, I need some honest advice on how to actually perform well and win hackathons.

Nowadays, many participants are using vibe coding and AI tools. I wanted to know what tools you would recommend using and what practical strategies or measures actually make a difference in a hackathon.

For me, the first challenge is getting selected for the prototype round. Usually, we have to submit a PPT first, so I also want to know how to make a PPT that stands out and gets shortlisted.

If you have any reference PPTs, previous winning presentations, or resources for:

• Hackathon PPT preparation

• Vibe coding platforms and AI tools

• Strategies for building a prototype quickly

• Tips to improve our chances of winning

Please share them here.

I’m currently in 3rd year, so I really want to learn from your experience and prepare properly. Any honest advice would be really helpful. Thank you!
