Below are the answers to some Frequently Asked Questions- What is a hackathon? A hackathon is an opportunity to learn new concepts about tech and apply them to some cool ideas. These ideas are formulated to create things like websites, apps, or unthinkable solutions to a problem presented by the theme of the hackathon. Don't worry, you don't have to have experience coding or be an expert with computers to participate, think of it as an opportunity-How much does it cost to participate in Hack Frost NL?

Mentor and judge opportunities are also open for experienced professionals interested in our event! See our website for more details-I don’t have a strong coding experience, can I still participate? Of course! The event isn't about who's the best programmer, it's a learning experience!

Our team is currently looking for cool prizes that will offer winners valuable experiences-Do I need a team? Yes. We strongly encourage you to arrange a team of 2 to 4 people before registering.
