List of hackathons organized by holochain & holo team in 2018

Build a distributed app prototype in a weekend! Familiarize yourself with a new coding paradigm and learn tools for the rapid development of decentralized applications. Holochain is a post-blockchain protocol for storing data in a completely peer-2-peer network. Join co-founder Arthur Brock and members of the Holochain team for this workshop on the technology. Friday          Oct 12         6:00PM—9:00PM Saturday      Oct 13       10:00AM—8:00PM Sunday        Oct 14        11:00AM—6:00PM Note 1: Friday's session is free and open to the public. Please arrive between 5:30 and 5:45 pm. Your registration helps us plan appropriately.  Note 2: Tickets are required for Saturday & Sunday - the fee goes toward food, materials, and venue. If the ticket price is a barrier, please contact us for support.  Note 3: If you're coming for Saturday and Sunday, please attend Friday evening's session (you only need to register for the full hackathon). Are you interested in building decentralized applications? Imagine a world where everyone can interact with no central power in the middle. Imagine a world where we can build a local and global sharing economy (cars, homes, tools, learning...), where everyone can play and contribute to the decisions. A world where we can build sustainable currencies, with no central authority that could sooner or later dictate the rules. A world where we can design thriving economies. This world will run on distributed apps, or dApps. Open source, completely distributed, dApps allow direct peer-to-peer interactions and have incredible evolutionary capacities. Holochain enables a distributed web with user autonomy built directly into its architecture and protocols. Data allows the remembering of our lived and shared experiences. Distributing the storage and processing of that data will change how we coordinate and interact. With digital integration under user control, Holochain liberates our lives from corporate control over our choices and information. Join Holochain co-founder Art Brock and the Holo team for a weekend of training and hands-on support in Holochain architecture, design principles, and app development tools with plenty of work in teams to build distributed software applications. Preparation Check Out Our Developer Documentation: https://github.com/holochain/holochain-proto https://developer.holochain.org/ Download Holochain: https://developer.holochain.org/Install_Holochain Join Holochain New York Chatroom: https://chat.holochain.net/appsup/channels/nyc-hackathon-dragon Get stoked: Start thinking about what you want to create! Hackathon Structure Project co-founder Arthur Brock will introduce people to building in the Holochain framework. We encourage people to come with distributed app ideas. Experience with either JavaScript or Lisp will be helpful, but not mandatory. Information on how to prepare for the Hackathon will be provided in advance to ticket holders. Fri evening —  6-9 pm Includes an introduction to the technology from Arthur with an initial Q&A. This session is free and open to the public. Sat/Sun — 10–8/10–6 Short educational sessions alternating with time for hands-on learning by collaborating on prototypes and models to share at a show and tell at the closing. Our job is to support you in going as far as you can from where you’re starting. We’re all learning together. Whether you’re coming to learn to code on Holochain, develop a radical business model, or design social enterprise — we’re here to support you. Location, Transportation, & Food We are being hosted by Bushwick Generator - 215 Moore St, Brooklyn, NY 11206 It's easily accessible by public transportation - hooray! Lunches and light snacks will be provided. Please bring a reusable water bottle and anything else you need to be comfortable during the event. Event Partners We are very grateful to Bushwick Generator for hosting and sponsoring our event!  Want to co-sponsor? Contact us! FAQs Do I need to be a programmer to attend? While this event is not intended exclusively for software developers, assisting devs with the technical aspects of the project is our main focus. Can I do business on Holochain? YES! Jump into our track for people who want to build businesses to capitalize on Holochain’s unique structure! Can the app I want to make be built on Holochain? The answer is almost certainly yes. Nearly any app can be built on Holochain and in most cases Holochain offers you functionalities and efficiencies that other distributed architectures don’t. I still feel skeptical. What do you say to that? Good! You should feel skeptical! We’re making some serious claims. Come and see for yourself. (and take a look at our green paper, white paper, and currency paper) What should I bring? Bring your passions, skills, and ideas for next-generation apps and businesses!! And a water bottle ; ) Can I ask more questions? Totes. Ask away.

Techies and hackers in the New York City area! If you're interested in distributed applications, then you're invited to participate in the Holochain Hackathon: New York City! You'll get to learn the basics of a new coding paradigm and learn tools for rapid development of decentralized applications. Then you'll be challenged to design and prototype your own distributed app solution using the next-gen Holochain platform for decentralized power structures.

Build a distributed app prototype in a weekend!  Familiarize yourself with a new coding paradigm and learn tools for the rapid development of decentralized applications. Holochain is a post-blockchain protocol for storing data in a completely peer-2-peer network. Join training lead Connor Turland, co-founder, Art Brock, and members of the Holochain team for a weekend workshop on using the technology. Friday, May 25th 6:00PM—9:00PM @ Anaconda  Saturday, May 26th 10:00AM—9:00PM @ Anaconda Sunday, May 27th 11:00AM—6:00PM @ Anaconda  Note: Friday's session is free and open to the public. There will also be a Live Stream for those not in the room.  Are you interested in building decentralised applications? Holochain is a breakthrough in the scalability of distributed computing that allows you to run Facebook scale applications on a decentralized architecture. Holochain dApps (hApps) are held completely by their users in a peer-2-peer network. Users are directly connected in a data commons with no centralised server or cloud processing data between them. Holochain is currently in Alpha with a number of prototype apps available to play with. This weekend is an opportunity to come get started on building your own! Check out the Holochain github and developer tools at the links below: https://github.com/holochain/holochain-proto https://developer.holochain.org/ Hackathon Structure Project co-founder, Art Brock, and training lead, Connor Turland, will introduce people to building in the Holochain framework. We encourage people to come with distributed app ideas. Experience with either JavaScript or Lisp will be helpful, but not mandatory.  The Friday evening session will be held at the Anaconda offices at 221 W 6th Street. It will include an introduction to the technology from Art with an inital Q&A. This session is free and open to the public. There will also be a Live Stream for those unable to be present.  Saturday and Sunday attendees will experience short educational sessions alternating with unstructured time for learning and collaboration with the goal of building an app prototype.
