About
What is a hackathon?
A hackathon is a coding "competition" where hackers race to complete their own product, website, game, app, or piece of hardware to win prizes, meet new friends, and learn.
Our Event
Note: This is not an overnight hackathon, we have packed the awesomeness of a 24-hour event into 10 hours to make it more high-school friendly!
HackSBPL is run by the XSTEM Club of South Brunswick High School and the South Brunswick Public Library.
