# Rules

I want to repeat the rules here, so everyone participating understands them.

* All projects must be **open source** and provide a **public repo**.
* All projects must be unique and your own work, you are free to use only open source elements and your own code to build your project.
* Any third-party code/libraries used should be mentioned in your entry.
* Your project must be exclusive to Hive.
* Your project must be new and have started after the release of this post.
* You can work in teams and I can split the prize between team members if requested.
* The deadline is firm and submitting your entry even a second later will disqualify you.  Pay attention to the deadline and plan accordingly.
* You must submit a post with your entry in the #hackathon-entries channel in the [STEMGeeks Discord](https://discord.gg/mUbak9f). Please use this channel only for submitting entries.  

These rules are firm and there will be no exceptions.  It is up to you to make sure you comply and submit in time.

# Website

The STEMGeek's Hackathon now has a website which you can find at https://hivehackathon.com.  I want to thank @asgarth for his help making one so quickly.

This website will help gain external exposure to this and future events and is a work in progress.
