This year we thought it would be fun to highlight many of the useful Neo4j integrations with other technologies in a “Buzzword BINGO” format. This means that teams will be building applications using Neo4j and other technologies listed on their BINGO cards. (Insert example?) Each team must make a BINGO (four in row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally) for a valid hackathon submission.
*Steps*
0. (optional) Intro workshop. Come to the 1 hour intro to Neo4j workshop.
1. Choose your team. Register your team in advance here, or join teams on site
2. Choose your bingo card. Find a BINGO option of neo4j buzzwords. Your submission must make a BINGO using the buzzwords on the card.
3. Present! Present your graph hack.
4. Win! Our esteemed panel of judges will be awarding team prizes.
Not currently a graph hacker, or want to learn more? Come early (9am-10am) for a hands on workshop covering an intro to Neo4j and an overview of many of our popular "buzzwords" - also known as technology integrations that make building applications with Neo4j easier :-)
Optional Workshops: 9am-10am:
Intro to Neo4j. New to graph databases and Neo4j? Start here. This workshop will start with an overview of the property graph datamodel, graph thinking, an introduction to querying Neo4j using Cypher and Neo4j Browser and show how to use Neo4j Sandbox to work with existing datasets and load your own data.
Intermediate Neo4j. For those who have some basic experience with Neo4j, this workshop will focus on how to use the Neo4j drivers to build an application using Cypher, and cover more advanced data import techniques like loading from web APIs and using the APOC library.
Building Fullstack Applications With GRANDstack (GraphQL, React, Apollo, Neo4j Database). Learn how to build modern web applications backed by Neo4j using GraphQL and React.
Natural Language Process With Neo4j. Learn how to apply NLP techniques to enrich the graph model and find insights in large text-based datasets.
Building Graph Apps To Run On Neo4j Desktop. Part of the Graph Platform, Graph Apps run directly in Neo4j Desktop and leverage components specifically designed for building graph applications.
Spatial Neo4j. Learn how to take advantage of spatial functionality in Neo4j. This workshop will cover using spatial features with Cypher and how to use OpenStreetMap data for tasks like routing.
Data Visualization With yFiles. Visualize and work with graph data using the yFiles visualization tool from yWorks. Learn how to build interactive graph applications and visually explore your data.

Looking to practice your UX skills, learn, meet cool people and help improve a real startup product? Welcome to UX Mini Hackathon Series.
What is the UX Mini Hackathon?
Our UX mini hackathons are short one-evening events featuring real organizations that provide problems that can be addressed with design and technology. Attendees collaborate in teams, brainstorm and prototype their solutions and then present back to the organizations. Teams are provided with feedback from clients / mentors and can win in various categories (and get prizes, if available).
Who should attend?
Those who want to improve their UX/prototyping skills by helping a real organization: UX and UI designers, product designers, researchers, product people, developers, aspiring UX professionals and other tech people who want to meet new people, learn and advance their UX skills in a team environment.
What will the format be like?
- Organizations are invited and requested to provide a problem that they would like help with where design and technology can help (design brief will be shared with attendees a bit in advance)
- During the 3 hour UX hackathon, the teams will be able to put together a basic idea and prototype their solution - Teams will have the opportunity to present their solution to the client(s) / UX mentors and get feedback
- The winning team and others interested might continue working on the project if they and the organization are interested
**Important - what you will need:
- Laptops will be quite useful ;)
- You need to be able to use design / prototyping tools (any tools of your choice will work: i.e. Sketch, Adobe Suite (design), InVision, Marvel or Principle for Mac, Pixate, Axure, or at least POP, Balsamiq or Keynote)

Are you interested in building new types of applications on top of a blockchain? Want to see what the hype is about? Are you interested in cryptocurrencies, Distributed apps and meeting like minded people?Then you are the ideal candidate to join this hackathon!See:https://github.com/ConsenSys/linnia-resourceshttps://linnia.comWhy should I care?Decentralization mean more power over your data, the ability to retain your privacy, true freedom of expression, and greater competition for startups. It means refuting the idea that in order to have any technological progress we must give up our privacy, lower our security, and forgo control.It means:New possibilities for a new generation of web developers,New business models for businessesMore choices for users.Love Surveillance capitalism? Cool, AdTech is around. Would like some sort of alternative? Come on by and join us. Freedom and control is easier now more than ever using the Linnia protocol.What is Linnia?The Linnia Protocol enables users to own and control their data. The protocol flips the script on the current model of the internet where centralized servers own and control your data, limiting the new services and applications that can be created. Using the Linnia.js library you are able to create applications that leverage decentralized data solutions, all without learning a new programming language like Solidity.What will you do?You'll use the Linnia-box or Linnia.js library to create a web app that can leverages Ethereum, IPFS, and other tools to easily create decentralized data with encryption. This opens the door to applications that can use sensitive data that otherwise would not be available.What will I build?Whatever you want. The only requirement is that it uses Linnia.js or the Linnia-box (a create react app starter kit).Developers get the advantage of being able to mix and match new forms of data and thus creating new types of app, say in the healthcare sector where privacy is essential.No need to know much about the Blockchain, Solidity, or Ethereum.How will you do it?Hack together your app using our Linnia.js library that does all the heavy lifting for you. Or use our Linnia-box, a React App preloaded with our Linnia.js library and our Linnia Smart Contracts all in one convenient package.Where?At Bushwick Generator in the world renowned hip neighborhood of Bushwick, Brooklyn. Here you will find plenty of iron and irony.How long will it take?2 days.What's in it for me?You will find: a community of like-minded people, building something that you’d love to show off on your resume, learn about new technologies in the Web 3.0 space.Also, food, swag, prizes and mentorship from developers at ConsenSys!Whats the food situation looking like?It won’t be just Pizza guys and gals. Unless you like Roberta’s or RubiRosa’s. Delicious food will be served!Can I bring my crew to work with?Yup!Shout out to Byte Academy!:https://byteacademy.co
