Android Academy Hackathon 2019
Organized by
The registration has officially ended on the 21st of March.
It is now open unofficially but we do not guarantee we can find you a team until the Hackathon.
The Android Academy 2019 Hackathon is on its way!
We've been through the Android Fundamentals and Android Design courses and we know our way around design and code. Now it is time to put our knowledge into action and forge an application from an idea!
Prepare for 24 hours of intense coding, designing and coffee drinking while you create your application.
Please register only if you are 100% certain you will come. There is a lot of work and effort put into the hackathon and the number of tickets is limited.
All of this couldn't have happened without our sponsors. A huge thanks to:
