Get ready to unlock innovation in the midst of disorder at SystemsHacks 2024: ChaosHacks! The Software Systems Student Society is proud to present our 8th annual beginner-oriented hackathon, happening in-person @ SFU Surrey’s Engineering Building on Saturday, March 2nd, 2024! During ChaosHacks, you’ll get to learn some new skills, strengthen bonds with your team, and make a cool project in our 12-hour hackathon!
What’s the theme of ChaosHacks?
The idea on the surface is simple: Create something centered around chaos. Whether it be embracing the chaos, creating chaos, or anything in between; the choice is up to you! After all, the world is filled with chaos so it is up to us as developers to create technical tools to deal with it (or if you dare, add to it.).
Requirements
