Judges
Each team is required to post some sort of presentation/solution on this platform (level playing field). The solution doesn't have to be fully functional and could be more of a "click-through-prototype", mock-up, or wireframes. This hackathon is less concerned with the tech than the ideas of how tech could be leveraged in an overall solution. The judging criteria is equally weighted between: fit for the challenge, creativity, and feasibility. So a presentation of a solution that clearly addresses how the solution helps neighborhoods come together...and is interesting/unique/innovative...and appears that it could be implemented (with the right resources) -- that's what we're looking for!
Please post questions in the "discussion" area (menu item on the left).
Thanks again for your time and efforts to help your community!!
