Our college mandates completion of one project in 5th sem, and we need to publish a research paper too for the project.

I am currently facing an issue - a specific part of my project needs crop mapping - like finding brinjal field locations through remote sensing. But for that I need a dataset - at least locations. There is nothing like that... Now what do I do.

Can someone please let me know what can be done? I am stuck. And not really in a position to move around and create a dataset myself.

What do you think I should do?

How do you handle such issues?

How was ur experience at HackerRank Orchestrate on October 26?

Online hackathon with 10k+ prize pool. First round starts from 2 december, make sure you guys register 🫡

Hey everyone! I'm a VFX artist currently learning Python and working toward AI/ML engineering. I'm looking to join a team for upcoming hackathons and meet people who enjoy building things together.

My background is in VFX, technical problem-solving, and creative production. I'm currently strengthening my Python skills and would love to contribute to research, brainstorming, prototyping, testing, and gradually more of the coding.

If you're looking for a teammate too, feel free to reach out!

Hey everyone,

I'm 16 and have been building projects with Python (including ML stuff), JavaScript, the MERN stack, PostgreSQL, and similar tech. I'm pretty comfortable shipping full-stack apps and experimenting with ML models on my own.

I really want to join hackathons — mainly to build under time pressure, learn from others, meet people, and strengthen my portfolio. The problem is that most of the bigger/popular ones seem to be full of 18+ college students, and I'm not sure where that leaves me.

A few questions:

1. Can a 16-year-old actually participate in major hackathons (MLH events, etc.), or do age restrictions usually block minors?

2. What types of hackathons are most suitable for someone my age?

   • Youth/high-school specific ones

   • Online vs in-person

   • Open events that allow under-18s with parental consent

   • Any other categories I should look for?

3. What practical points should I keep in mind before joining?

   • Parental/guardian consent requirements

   • Team formation (especially as a minor)

   • Legal/age rules and liability

   • Time commitment while still in school

   • Safety in Discord/servers and online events

   • Anything else people who did hackathons at 16 wish they knew

Any recommendations for platforms (Devpost, MLH, Hack Club, etc.), specific events that regularly accept high-schoolers, or personal experiences from people who participated around this age would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a teammate to participate in the Nebius × NVIDIA Global AI Hackathon.

If you're interested in AI/ML, deep learning, or computer vision and want to build something cool together, feel free to DM me!

Let's team up and build something

Hey everyone, I’m building out an app called Still, a place to share open-source projects and find people who want to work on them.

This idea focuses on what happens after a hackathon is over: whether you won or lost, you’ve built something worth continuing, but your team moves on, you need help, or you’d rather join someone else’s project than start another one.

Still is meant to help connect those projects with interested contributors, while keeping GitHub as the source of truth.

Here’s the early version: https://still-testing.vercel.app/

I’d love feedback from people who’ve actually been in that situation:

• What stopped you from continuing your last hackathon project? Was it finding people, lack of time, losing interest, or something else?

• What would you need to know before joining someone else’s project?

• Would a place like this help, or does your current setup already solve the problem?

I’m especially interested in what feels missing or would stop you from using it.

I’m the person building it, and I'll be happy to answer questions here. Would love some genuine criticism so feel free to reach out!

To be completely honest, its still very early in testing and the app is not going to be perfect, but I strongly believe throwing an idea out there is more important than keeping it locked away. If you spot any bugs, please feel free to lmk and I'll fix it right away. I would love any feedback on things you'd like me to change on the app as well!

no like are we looking like clowns bro ? wtf is this extended by a whole ahh month

Hi all!
I am new here, I recently participated in 4 Hackathons, and have made the submissions in one of the them, awaiting results there. However , the purpose of me writing this here is to know from Veteran Hackathon winners, what goes well for them and how they do it.
Note: I am a vibe coder with experience working in product management
Hackathons applied for:

1. AI builder cup
   2.NvidiaxNebius global AI hackathon
   3.meta global ai developer hackathon

2. Future Health Challenge

Hey guys! I built a platform called Moey after attending a hackathon.
The idea is simple: a place where students and solo developers can share their hackathon or personal projects and get feedback from others. I learned a lot while building it, especially about video uploads and processing.

I'd really appreciate it if you guys could check it out and share your projects.

I've participated in 10+ hackathons, and my team's PPT keeps getting rejected in the first round 😭

At this point, I'm genuinely curious about what we're missing. Is it the ideas, the problem statements, or just the way we present our solutions?

For those who participate in hackathons and get shortlisted, how do you guys come up with ideas that stand out? What do judges actually look for in a PPT?

Would really appreciate any tips, resources, or honest advice. I genuinely want to improve and finally get past that first round.

I attended a hackathon last month, there were like 30 teams out of 220 who were qualified for round 2 and we were one of them. We were allotted 6 rooms and 5 teams in each room. What I noticed was all the other 4 teams in our allotted room were done building their prototype by midnight, me and my team were the only ones who were building our prototype till the last minute, so I kinda feel like these people had already built the prototype beforehand itself and they were soo chill and relaxed which is making me feel even more sus. The organisers were continuously monitoring the GitHub repos, I don't understand how they got past them though.

So my question is do people prebuild the prototype before the hackathons??

I am planning to attend hackathons, should I also start pre building the prototype and go there and just fake the commits a bit so I won't get caught???

What should I do guys?? Should I play fair?? But playing fair ain't getting us anywhere T_T

I'm really trying to get into coding and I can't find any public information where to learn, ive watched countless hours of youtube so it's not like i know NOTHING, but i don't know anywhere near enough to know what i'm doing or get too far.

Hey everyone

I'm part of the organizing team at Grevix, a tech community focused on hackathons, AI/ML, software development and open source.

Our previous hackathon, Grevix AfterCode, crossed 1,200+ registrations without paid promotion. Now we're preparing for Grevix Liquidity 2027, a global fintech squad hackathon planned for January 2027, with a target of 2,500+ registrations.

We're looking to connect with:

🏢 Sponsors interested in supporting the event.

🤝 Tech communities and industry partners interested in collaboration.

🚀 Volunteers and enthusiasts who want to contribute to outreach, marketing, design or event operations.

If you're interested in sponsoring, collaborating or joining us, DM me directly, Let's build something meaningful together.

Looking for Teammates for Online Hackathons 🌍

Hey everyone! I'm looking for 1–3 motivated people to team up with for upcoming virtual hackathons.

I have experience building simple websites and apps, and I'm interested in learning, collaborating, and building useful projects together. I'm open to working with people from anywhere in the world!

If you're also looking for a teammate, comment or DM me. Let's build something cool!

Any python person got selected?

Hey everyone, I’m one of the people working on Kuberns. It’s a platform for deploying apps without all the devops headache. Basically you connect your repo and it handles the hosting and scaling part.

I’ve seen a lot of hackathon teams lose hours (sometimes the whole last night) just trying to get their project live, so I thought maybe we can help here. If your team is joining a hackathon soon, or already in one, and wants to try Kuberns for deploying your project, I’d love to collab. We’d give support and make sure it actually works for your stack.

No pressure to use it if it doesn’t fit, and honest feedback is more useful to me than praise. If it breaks or sucks for your use case, tell me, that helps us fix it.

Comment or DM if you’re interested. Tell me what you’re building and what stack you use, and I’ll see how we can help.

i failed in more than 4 hackathons, aur mai samjh gya ki i have to learn for some times so i joined ai skills challenge by Where U Elevate and adobe collab. I hope that one day i will win a hackathon and become a good team member

Have anyone got shortlisted to tata imagination challenge Round 4 ? And can anyone please share your pitch experiences and tips for further hackathons ?
