Tips for planning your project

Be sure to attend at least one office hours session or webinar.

You’ve registered for the Quick Base Virtual Hackathon, now what? Below is a recommended workflow to organize your time during the hackathon’s submission period. 

• • Determine Your Submitter Status
    • Are you working as an individual?
    • Are you working as a team?
      • Do you need teammates? (Join Slack and/or visit the Participants tab)
  • Organize your time

• Phase 1: Brainstorm

• Identify problems and possible solutions (Here’s some inspiration)

• Start a draft submission on Devpost

• Clarify your idea with a brief tagline

• Plan your solution

• Phase 2: Build and Deploy

• Open a Quick Base Builder Account 

• Develop your solution

• Conduct user testing and iterate your solution 

• Share your solution

• Refine your project details and edit your draft submission on Devpost

• Phase 3: Final Submission (Aim to submit week of November 2 — this will ensure you submitted the solution; remember you can always go back into your submission any time before November 16 at 5PM ET)

• Create a demo video

• Verify your submission meets the requirements of the hackathon (See rules)

• Submit the project on Devpost BEFORE November 16 at 5PM ET
