List of hackathons organized by foundation for an innovative future in 2019

Open-source enthusiasts—programmers, designers, QA types, and others in Southern California! Register for the Online Collaboration Tree Hackathon. You'll get to collaborate on the open-source Collaboration Tree (cTree) web platform for community think tanks. Come network and build your resume, while working with like-minded techies to help advance the cTree project by helping create an open-source tool for online collaboration around specific topics or goals. For useful info on participating in the Collaboration Tree Hackathon, check the hackathons tips page!

Get started with the new web components standard and Google's Polymer web components framework as part of an open source project: the Collaboration Tree.  Web components allow you to create new HTML tags which can be used with any other HTML based web technology.  Polymer adds data binding for cascading changes, as well as a broad library of polished components.  The Collaboration Tree (cTree) is an open source project in progress, built on Polymer, who's goal is to create a new large scale collaborative discussion platform (read: open think tank). This event will introduce you to the project and help you get hands on with Polymer web components.  If you want to continue learning and working with Polymer on a real project you can join a cTree team working on a specific part of the project.  For newer developers, open source project teams are a great way to build up your resume. Before the event We recommend joining our Slack group and seting up the project in advance.  If you have any issues we can help you resolve them during the event.  We also encourage you to sign up for GitHub if you don't already have an account If you're looking to jump in a bit early we're also at Hack for LA most Tuesday nights. Event Location We're currently in between locations. Join our video conference for the introduction discussion and communicate during the event in our Slack group in the #los-angeles-ca channel.
