Hackathons
We do hackathons at the start of osoc to...
...really get to know each other. It's your time to shine, show what you can do and see how your other team members can bring a project to the next level β¨
...run through a first cycle together; from defining what you're going to build, to building, to delivering a first valuable thing, which you will define during the scoping session.
...make mistakes. Please make a lot of mistakes and learn, to do better in the next cycle π₯
Examples
We want you to learn as much as possible from this hackathon, and it depends on the type of project you have what you're going to do.
Refine the story; create a vision
Create your wireframes/mockups
A first prototype
Try out a new technology
Implement a first dataset
... Surprise us
How
Not sure how to get started on this hackathon? Try a brainstorm to get the creative juices flowing, or do a scoping session to narrow down what you're going to do. Take the time you need, the team decides when they are to start hacking!
You're definitely free to do it your way! As long as the team is working together.
Oh and remember the rule of Ο (pi)... When doing an estimation of a task, let's say, for an hour, it's most likely to take about 3.14 times longer. Thank us later.
