Two days packed with knowledge, coding, hackathon spirit and it's all about APPs!

On day one, you can participate in up to four workshops. We will explain everything about apps: how to start, the first App, how to host them and potential project ideas. Each workshop will run three times in parallel to keep the groups small enough. We will inform you about your group shortly before the event.

Day two will be a hackathon. You can bring ideas, find a team and get started together. You don't have an idea yet which App to build? Then you can grab a suggestion from our idea pool. In any case, members of our Dev Team will be there to offer advice and support. 

And because we know how hard it is to talk in front of people and especially in a foreign language, we are happy to give you the option to present your idea to us. Niklas will do the translation and presentation for you.

Find the perfect App project

We will provide two ways of finding the perfect match: On the one hand, you can talk to our team in a "room" on the campus and find out what larger apps are still missing and are worth implementing in a more extensive project. On the other hand, we will have a list of ideas with a smaller approach. The app suggestions are particularly suitable as an introduction or a starting point for further developing the concept.

And keep in mind, every App you build is a potential winner for our App Contest!

We will meet in our Online Campus in Gather Town. You will receive the login link in an email before the event.
