Things to keep in mind

Greetings, all you amazing people!

I'm reaching out here to provide you with a few things to think about as you work on your submissions. We have outlined some judging criteria that may help you consider the intent of the project you are creating. These criteria are not meant to be a checklist that you have to satisfy completely, but more like ways to evaluate your project's mission. Don't get wrapped up in trying to cover all bases. As always, feel free to reach out with any questions on Discord, and happy hacking!

 

* Innovation: How unique and original is the idea or solution presented?

* Technical Difficulty: The complexity of the technical implementation or the challenge addressed.

* Execution: How well was the idea executed and implemented within the given time frame?

* Impact: The potential or actual positive effect the solution could have on individuals, communities, industries, or society as a whole.

* Viability: The feasibility and practicality of the solution in real-world applications.

* Presentation: How well the team communicates their idea, demonstrating its value and potential impact.

* Creativity: The level of originality and out-of-the-box thinking displayed in the solution.

* Technical Achievement: The level of technical skill, complexity, and sophistication demonstrated in the implementation.

* Scalability: The potential for the solution to be scaled up or expanded to handle larger user bases or more significant challenges.

* Market Potential: The commercial viability and potential market demand for the solution.

* Ethical Considerations: Whether the solution considers ethical implications and adheres to principles such as privacy, security, fairness, and inclusivity.

* Adaptability: The flexibility of the solution to adapt to changing circumstances or be applied in different contexts.

Thanks!
