HOW TO PROCEED
There are two phases in this hack:
In the first phase, everyone needs to submit a synopsis of their idea and how they plan to implement it. In the final phase, the shortlisted participants will be invited for the offline hackathon where they would be working on their idea and building a prototype. The event flow will be as follows:
-
A networking session with the guests where they will be sharing their experiences in various technical domains.
-
The hackathon.
The hackathon is segmented into three technical review rounds:
Review 1 - A basic prototype of the product.
Review 2 - Present the project-in-progress.
Review 3 - Final developed application.
DevJams'19 will help you understand the importance of Open Source Development with the help of a session on "How to use GIT, GitHub and what is Hacktoberfest". After attending the session, you will be able to contribute to Open Source seamlessly.
