01 / ABOUT THE HACKATHON

Good ideas don’t
wait for permission.

F&MHacks is a 24-hour chance to make something with people who care about ideas. Bring your curiosity, find a team, and turn a small spark into a project you can show.

Whether you code, design, write, research, or present, there is a place for you. Teams can have up to four members, and each project needs at least one person who can program.

04 / THE GROUND RULES

Make it yours.

We want to see what your team can build during the event.

01

Write your project code during the hackathon. No prebuilt project submissions.

02

Software projects only; no hardware required or accepted.

03

Disclose where and how you used AI. A single prompt alone is not a finished project.

04

You can discuss ideas with other teams, but direct project work comes from your own team.
