Highway to Undercity

Highway is a hardware grant program where you can design any project, and we'll send you the parts & funding up to 350 USD per project you need to build it!

Repeat to get invited to Undercity, a 4-day hardware hackathon, July 11-14 @ GitHub HQ.

There's both beginner & advanced tracks, so everyone is included. There'll be new content, freebies, and other awesome stuff from now until July 31st.

How to start

If you're making a custom project, this is your place to start!

Remember to read through the Project guidelines.

Fork this repo and head over to the submissions.yml file - add the URL of your project there.

It should look something like this:

projects:
  - "https://github.com/Dongathan-Jong/SpotifyDisplay"
  - "your_repo_link"

We'll check if you have a README.md and JOURNAL.md file, and merge it after that. You're free to start working on your project!

If you're making an Advanced custom project (grant up to 350 USD, 10 points) - remember to pitch it in #highway-pitstop first.

How to submit

Done your project + want to submit it to get your grant? Submit it in the form here: https://forms.hackclub.com/highway

Remember to read through the submission guidelines before submitting!

Ready. Set. Build!


Website development

Ooooh, you're in the README to figure out how the actual highway website works? Sure!

It's a standard rails codebase, but when you first start up you might want to run bin/rails projects:clone to download all the submissions.
