Women’s Day Hackathon

In celebration of International Women’s Day, WWCode SD is having our very first community hackathon!
Come join us on Saturday, March 10th, 2018 at the gorgeous offices of UE.co in downtown San Diego!

Participate in collaborative and creative coding challenges over a day-long coding sprint as you work in teams to build projects. We’ll have mentors around to answer coding questions and give project insights. The event culminates in a presentation before a panel of judges at the end of the day. This is a Hackathon designed to showcase women as we take on tech!
