HackTheCastle

HackTheCastle is a one-day in-person high school hackathon hosted by Noble and Greenough School on May 14, 2022, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Open to coders of all experience levels.

Requirements

Submissions ideally should be relatively easy for the judges to figure out how to get running. If your project's environment is very complicated to set up, we would recommend that you include some instructions for the judges. These don't need to be perfect, though, and the judges will try their best to get it to work.
