Hackathon participants will work all day Friday and will return on Saturday, to complete their apps. They will be supported by CodeCrew staff and volunteers from the Memphis tech community.
To keep everyone excited, focused, and motivated, CodeCrew is leaning on a fantastic support team and special guests.
On Saturday, participants will make presentations to a distinguished panel of judges and guests. Teams will compete for third, second, and first-place prizes! In addition, winners will have an opportunity to gain guidance and support to submit their creations to the Congressional App Challenge.
