hackclub hackathons are absolutely worth it, they were life-changing and transformative experiences, not just coding competitions. the goal isn't winning prizes but creating meaningful memories and building awesome projects that last forever

if you're a teenager (middle or highschooler), don't overthink, just apply!!

see you in #shipwrecked (join the slack)


Hello frankacter, Hong Kong hackclubber here ^-^ there will be a Hack Club Highschool Hackathon hosted in Taipei at March and they'll announce more information on instagram.com/hackit.tw


thanks for the reply, that is an odd instagram you've linked. It was just set up a couple of months ago, has made 0 posts and follows no one. It links to https://hackit.tw and https://counterspell.hackit.tw, neither of which seem to resolve.

I found this Thread post ( https://www.threads.net/@hackit.tw?xmt=AQGzSJCZSi-xlWjNR7_1C... ) which seems to suggest that Counterspell (?) is doing a combined hackathon with GenAI Hackathon sometime in 2025.

I've followed their social, but for "hackers", it certainly feels off.
