Prior technical experience is not necessary as there will be workshops to support you. In any case, teams should ideally consist of people with diverse skillsets to enhance your learning and maximize your chances of succeeding.
A demo or prototype can come in the form of a mock-up, illustration, diagram, video, app or website that can help to showcase your idea, in an interactive fashion. Attend our Figma workshop to learn how you can build one – no coding required.
Our community executive will get touch with you via email for the next course of action !
We will host an Info Session on 2 October to answer all of your queries at our best possible!
Else, you can drop us an email at hello.codeathonx2021@codefor.asia
