The energy at hackathons is always insane! The opportunity to collaborate with like-minded people to rapidly prototype ideas, paired with the chance to work on real-world challenges, motivates me to get involved. Contributing my skills—and learning new ones—is always a really rewarding experience.
The annual APEC App Challenge competitions have been my favorite hackathons to participate in! Their diverse challenges with real-world scenarios have been an amazing way to learn new skills.
Working in a team with diverse personalities and skill sets can sometimes be more challenging than the hackathon itself. Fostering a collaborative environment and encouraging everyone’s participation has been the key to overcoming this. Everyone’s here to learn and have a good time, so embrace the opportunity by being prepared to step outside your comfort zone!
“A small polished project is almost always better than a large unpolished project. Setting your project scope early (and sticking to it!) has worked well for me,” said Bryce Cronin.
Thanks, Bryce for being an active member of our community. Here’s to many more hackathons together!
