Open sourcing Hackathons

Hugo theme to run hackathons

Hackatheme for Hugo

A multilingual theme for time-bounded co-creation events such as hackathons, with a meta twist.

Hackatheme is a Hugo theme designed to ease the organization of hackathons and similar time-bounded events. It includes lots of open source delights, a sprinkle of stardust and plenty of chocolate chips 🍪.

It is also a meta-project in the sense that it includes documentation on how to replicate itself.
