About

Hacktoberfest Hack Day Coimbatore is a full-day, in-person hackathon hosted by INIT Club and iDEA Club at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Coimbatore, in collaboration with Major League Hacking and sponsored by SkySync.

The event focuses on Open Source × AI, bringing students together to build original projects using open-source technologies, AI tools, and collaborative development.

Teams must consist of exactly 4 members.

All prize-eligible projects must be submitted through OrganizerHQ before the submission deadline. Projects will be evaluated based on implementation, technical execution, originality, effective use of AI or open-source technologies, and overall project quality.

Participants may install development environments, libraries, models, and dependencies beforehand, but the actual project must be built during the event.

Participants should bring a laptop and charger, have a GitHub account ready, and ensure their development environment is set up before the event.

Final results will be announced after judging and eligibility verification, including repository and OrganizerHQ submission checks.

Come with an idea. Leave with something built.
