QuadRadical ismaking steady progress on Nexus, MatMaul is hooking encrypted search into Element X... the prototypes are polishing up!

We're starting to see the first results of the hackathon! Florian here is building a Rust bot that talks to Christian's receipt printer, and makes it print what they send to a room. Prototypes are taking form, keep up the good work everyone!

Plenty of conversations have been going on during lunch. Some serious, some less, but it's a very light hearted hackathon. Community first!

Not only do we have drinks, Famedly is also graciously sponsoring our lunch. And what better meal than pizzas to get more hacker brain juice?

Thanks to our sponsor Famedly, people at the hackathon can get refreshed. We even get to play with a fancy bar code scanner!

The Hackathon is making progress, people have formed teams! Integrations, Spec, Custom Emojis, Encrypted Search... there are plenty of ideas flying around!
