How many people can be on a team?+

A team can have 1-4 members.

What if I don't have a team?+

Not to worry! You'll meet people when you get there. Everybody's very friendly. A lot of people go to hackathons without teams. So it's perfectly normal to go around to people, tell them you're looking for a team, and ask if you can help out. Hackathons will often run team-matching sessions at the start to help you meet people. To get a head start, join our Discord to meet other hackers. PROTIP: Invite your friends to come to the hackathon too! That way you're guaranteed to have at least one familiar face.
