Requirements

What to Build

Your challenge is to create an app or game that supports the community or enhances educational experiences. Here are some ideas to get you started:

  • No-Code Projects: Propose a concept for an app or game and describe its benefits. Explain how it can be implemented using no-code tools like app builders or drag-and-drop platforms.
  • Low-Code Projects: Develop a basic app or game using low-code platforms that require minimal coding. Examples include community support apps, educational quizzes, or interactive learning tools.
  • Intermediate Projects: Build a more complex app or game that may involve coding. These could be fully functional community platforms, sophisticated educational games, or innovative tools for local organizations.

What to Submit

To successfully submit your project, make sure you include the following:

  • Project Description: Provide a detailed explanation of your app or game, its purpose, and how it benefits the community or educational sector.
  • Source Code (for Low-Code and Intermediate Projects): Share your project's source code or the link to your repository. Ensure that it's well-documented and easy to understand.
