TechTogether New York Hackathon (all-female) - Dec 4-6

Hi everyone! While searching for awesome Hackathons to join online during the holidays at DevPost I came across this one hosted in NYC this coming weekend. The topics are great and the prizes neat, so I thought I’d share. Hackathons are great to practice skills and also make new friends. If you are like me and are learning to code for job/career opportunities, you know how crucial it can be to meet people and learn about opportunities through them.

Good luck to all of you that decide to participate! And feel free to use this topic thread to find teammates :smile:
