Inside A High School Hackathon – Assemble, August 2022
Hi HN, I want to share this short documentary on a 183 person hackathon that I (age 17) ran with my friends this summer. Coding changed my life.

Hi HN, I want to share this short documentary on a 183 person hackathon that I (age 17) ran with my friends this summer. Coding changed my life. However, I've always struggled to find a space with folks my age who also find joy in coding, especially since the pandemic begun. My friends & I wanted to run an amazing in-person hackathon as soon as it was safe to do so, and Assemble was that event. To try and help other teenagers organise their own hackathons, we’ve open sourced all of our planning documents - including finances, marketing emails, website code, run-of-show, etc - at https://github.com/hackclub/assemble. Hoping that Assemble will resonate with people here, and happy to answer any questions about the organising process!

A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing…
