MinneHack 2023 is the largest yearly hackathon in Minnesota that welcomes hackers from around the country — a 24-hour event where you can create, collaborate, and compete to make something amazing!

This Year's Prompt: Create a project that encourages civil participation.

Check the minnehack.io website for specific schedule details. Note that the mini-events throughout the day also have prizes! Instructions on how to submit your project to Devpost can be found in the MinneHack 2023 Attendee Guide (https://z.umn.edu/mh2023guide).
