Hack the Cloud brought a successful online hackathon to high school students during the stay-at-home order. Hack the Cloud 2.0 plans to repeat this success again this summer!

Requirements

Projects must have proof of being created during our event time. Something like GitHub, GitLab, repl.it history is acceptable. Make sure to fill in enough information for this project to be judged and a video that is a couple of minutes is a great way to explain and present your project. Remember you want to pitch your project to the judges.
