FAQ.

Is it virtual or in-person?
Fully virtual. Discord for coordination, GitHub for submissions. Top finalists pitch live on stream.
Can I compete solo?
Yes. Solo or teams up to four. We match teammates in Discord on day zero.
What counts as a submission?
A public GitHub repo plus a two-minute demo video. Working code beats a polished pitch.
Do I have to use Produck?
No. The three tracks are open stack. Bonus weight goes to teams whose tools or fixes plug into Produck.
How are projects judged?
Does it work, is it shipped, does it answer the brief. Track sponsors judge their track.
When are prizes paid out?
Within 14 days, routed via Wise to the verified GitHub account on the submitting team. International is fine.
