ππ« We're Jammin' π
This summer, join us to build the future of Hack Club meets - we're calling them Jams!
Work with the team at HQ to ship a Jam and πΈ we'll pay you $200 πΈ for your 10-15 hour time commitment. Then, your Jam will be used by thousands of Hack Clubbers around the world!
A Jam is a real project that can be completed in under 1 hour and everyone's result is different! The goal is to build a quality project for varying technical abilities and will include slides and a video.
πHere's how to get started
- We're only accepting 20 Jams this round
- Propose a Jam by July 2! *Check the README for instructions
- Hear back from the team within 48 hours Mon-Fri on whether your proposal is accepted.
- Once accepted, work closely with the team to write the Jam, make a presentation and film a short video by July 19.
- Ka-chingπ°πͺ!
π₯ OnBoard
Teens around the world are designing their first PCBs as part of OnBoard, a Hack Club project where you design a board, and we help you with $100 to make it real! Get involved and check out some amazing projects coming together so far:
