Three days, a room of friends, and whatever you feel like building.

what this is

01 / 04
three days

Friday evening to Sunday evening. Turn up when you can, leave when you need to. Sleep is allowed and mildly encouraged.

friends only

An invite list, not a signup funnel. Everyone here already knows someone else here, which is the whole point.

build whatever

No theme, no track, no brief. A game, a synth, a shell script, a very stupid website. Finished is not a requirement.

# no judging  ·  no sponsors  ·  no pitch deck  ·  no demo slot you have to fill

you@whackathon:~$ ./signup

Email or Matrix handle — anything unique. Nothing is ever sent to it; it just keeps two Toms apart. Never shown to anyone else.

Takes one second. You'll get a private link back to this page.

Someone has to be first and it may as well be you. The list starts the second you do.

No ideas on the board.

Post the daft one you've been sitting on. Nobody is judging — that's written into the rules.
