01 — Tracks
Three tracks, one clock. Whichever you enter, you are judged on something that runs — not on a deck describing something that would.
Start from an empty repository.
Nothing exists when the clock starts. You choose the problem, you choose the stack, and thirty-six hours later you demo something that runs end to end.
Who it is forFirst-time hackers, and teams with an idea they never started.
Bring what you already have.
The side project that never made it past localhost. Over the weekend you harden it, deploy it, and put it in front of real users before submissions close.
Who it is forTeams with an existing project stuck at ninety percent.
Money moves. Build what moves it better.
Payments, lending, savings, fraud, compliance — anything a real financial product has to get right. Correctness and trust count here as much as the demo does.
Who it is forTeams who want a hard problem with real constraints.
02 — The 36 hours
The shape of the weekend. Exact clock times go up closer to the date — what is fixed is the order, and that it runs for 36 hours without stopping.
Problem statements drop, repositories open, nobody has written a line yet.
Every team gets looked at, whether or not you put your hand up.
Show what runs. Cut scope here while cutting it is still cheap.
The quiet hours. Kitchen stays open, mentors stay on the floor.
Last outside pass before the shape of your build is locked.
Repositories lock. Submissions close. Whatever runs, runs.
Live to the panel. A working product, not a slide about one.
Winners announced, certificates issued, lights up.
