Judging
What we evaluate
Judges look for innovation, technical depth, quality of user experience, and real-world impact — how convincingly your solution solves a concrete problem.
Submission format: a public GitHub repository (with a clear README and setup) and a concise pitch deck covering the problem, approach, demo, and impact.
Audience
Students & builders
Come ready to design, code, iterate, and ship.
