What's inside
01 · The 3 fears. Tech skills, public speaking, a theme outside your field. The truth about each one, and what to do instead of staying home.
02 · The checklist. The week before, the first 2 hours, the build, the last 4 hours, and after. Tick it as you go on hackathon day.
03 · Pitch and MVP. A 3-minute pitch broken down to the second, and an example of going from a theme to a demo that runs.
04 · Resources. Where to find hackathons, the tools to build fast, how to design the deck, and where to learn the skills. 20 links.
Who it's for
Students who want to join their first hackathon and keep finding reasons not to. If you've done a few already, the checklist and the pitch structure are still worth stealing.
