This is a hackathon on big data where you will be asked to build projects that remix big amounts of data. Either obtaining the data through APIs or by scraping. The tools that you will be using include the Python programming language and Google App Engine. Creating an application for a few users or millions of users is fundamentally the same in GAE. All participants will be placed in pairs. One member of the team can gather the data while the other can prepare the application itself or one member can prepare the web app while the other prepares the mobile app. Towards the end of the event, each team will present their project and each team votes for another team for best hackathon project. All projects completed at the hackathon will be fully production ready!

This is Europe's first ever Law Tech Hackathon ‘coding for good’. Hackney Community Law Centre (HCLC) is providing free and independent legal advice and representation to people living, working or studying in the London Borough of Hackney and neighbouring boroughs.
