Students who finish what they start
You get cluster access, a project that matters, code review, and a vote on what we take on next. Tell us about something you built and what broke. That beats a resume.

Anyone, member or not
Our repositories are open. Pick up an issue, send a pull request, or file a bug we missed. Contributors who stay usually become members.

Middle and high school students
Our hackathons are built for people who have never shipped anything. Arrive Saturday with nothing, demo something that runs on Sunday, leave with people you keep building with.

Companies, nonprofits, and schools
Offer a venue, compute, mentors, or funding and we will run a program with it. We assess every partnership against our published framework.
Read the frameworkWhat we ask, and what we promise
Four things, agreed up front.
Time
A few hours a week, agreed with you up front. School comes first. Tell us early when a term gets heavy and we will reassign the work.
Conduct
Everyone agrees to the Code of Conduct. Some members are minors, so the standard is high and we enforce it.
Openness
Your work ships open source under your own name. Keeping something closed requires a written reason.
Honesty
Report what your experiment actually did. A failed run written up clearly is worth more than a vague success.
