About
For 36 hours on November 10 - 12, HackPrinceton will bring together 600 developers and designers from across the country to create incredible software and hardware projects. This semester at HackPrinceton, we will provide a warm and spirited atmosphere for you to build out brilliant, innovative, and wild ideas.
At HackPrinceton, you’ll meet fellow hackers, learn new technologies, and hone your skills alongside seasoned mentors. We'll have free food, swag, workshops, free food, mentorship, prizes, games, free food, and more. Don’t have a team, or even an idea? Don’t worry! We’ll give you the tools to build something incredible.
Whether this will be your first or your twentieth hackathon — and whether you’re making your first mobile app or want to jump onboard the most developed hardware track in the country — we’d love to see you here!
