How it works
Everyone has the opportunity to learn by doing at our events.
Whether you come with an idea, project, or team – doesn’t matter.
The event will be coordinated in semi-open-space will happen during scheduled as well as emergent sessions, (self)organized in accord with Agile principles.
Experience
The typical Hackathon culture has participants staying up all night, drinking energy drinks and eating junk food in a competitive community driven by external motivators of prizes. A couple people leave as winners, most people leave as losers and everyone leaves exhausted – that’s not our style.
We want to build a more humane internet with greater individual sovereignty and collective intelligence and we want to reflect that intention through our events. Holochain Hackathons are focused on building community through the sharing of information and skills in a cooperative context. We want the process to be centered in building relationships and learning together to create a rich experience for all.. We’ll organize and schedule sessions as and when needed so that we spend more time learning by doing and less time in back to back classes. We feed people healthy foods and have reasonable start and end times so that participants leave the event feeling good.
Cost
This is a non-profit, community run event. Registration fees go towards covering the cost of the venue, food, and materials. We want the event to be accessible to everyone, if finances are a barrier for you, please reach out to us at events@holo.host for support.

What it looks like:
Vira comes with a team and a project they’re already working on. Danilo comes because he’s curious about how this stuff works. Vira, Danilo and everyone in between are welcome to come and have the opportunity to dive into making things with support from a fantastic team and community.
During our project brainstorm and team-formation process on Friday evening and Saturday morning, Vira’s team has the opportunity to scope their project and invite others to support them.
Danilo will be able to share some ideas he has, discuss others’ possible projects, join a team’s project that can utilize the skills he already has (we don’t just need developers), and give him the opportunity to learn new skills. Danilo might find himself in a couple different groups. In one he’s learning to code by helping to build a simple game and in another he’s contributing his design skills to create a UI for resource sharing app.
Vira’s team will split up Saturday morning: one of Vira’s teammates will attend a support session to install Holochain locally, another teammate more experienced in Holochain will join a tech-deep dive session to explore the latest developments in core, while Vira has a conversation about their business model and the projects’ architecture.
