Where am I?
Welcome to Wonderland, Hack Club’s winter hackathon in Boston.
Here, we are surrounded by Wonderland’s knicks and knacks, the various tools and parts that fell down the rabbit hole. As you survey the land, you see the many projects hackers have made before you, all constructed from the very items that came with you.
Some of you may be used to events where the only prompt is to make. Some of you may be familiar with building projects that try to “win.” Wonderland isn’t like that.
In the heart of Boston, we challenge you and your team to take the rabbit hole’s random assortment of parts—chests—and turn them into something that’s truly wonderful.
Only when we limit ourselves do we become truly free.
Requirements
Chests
What would you do with…
The first thing every project needs is a clear, well-thought-out plan. Right???
When we start a project, we often start by figuring out the "right" way to start, or the “right” tools to use. We research Python vs Typescript, ATTiny vs ATMega. More often than not, we lose the very thing we started with: excitement about our idea!
But what if you don’t have every tool in the world? What if you can’t use the right tool for the job? What if all you have is the stuff within arm’s reach? Only when you’re limited do you find yourself truly free — free to just start making.
Introducing Chests — Wonderland's mystery boxes of knicks and knacks. From a Python horoscope library to a rubber duck, your job will be to find a way to make a project with them.
