ββAnyone atβCompanyβ can add a project card with an idea, or upvote an existing card to show support for that idea. Deadline TBD!
ββEngineers, please form teams form by joining Trello cards that are exciting to you
ββOnce youβve joined a card, move it into"Projects with Builders" column
ββFind your fellow builders and kick off however works best for you. You can use the #hack-week slack to coordinate.
ββAt the end of hack week, please add a card with a link to your project, where-ever it lives(e.g. staging server).
ββPlease donβt deploy anything to our users - make sure it stays safe behind feature flips.
ββ
ββThere is no minimum team size, and a team of 1 is just fine(although it might be fun to work with someone else). The focus is on what can you hack in 3 days and get to a demo-able state. Similarly there is no max team size, but more than 3-4 folks can be hard to coordinate. Weβd recommend teams of 4 or less, but feel free to organize however you want.
ββ
ββYou can work on any project you like! You donβt have to work in a product area or codebase that youβre used to. Weβd love to encourage folks to exploring something a bit different if you want. If you prefer to work in your normal product area, thatβs fine too.
ββIt feels great to try and join just 1 project card to focus on getting it 100% done in the 3 days, although if you have 2 very small ones that could work too.
ββ
ββNo, you donβt have to join the most-upvoted cards. That info is there to help you decide if youβre on the fence about what would be really cool and impactful. This is a true hackathon, where you can build whatever you like.
ββ
ββWeβre reducing normal recurring syncs as much as we can to give lots of focus time to hack week. So regular recurring syncs, 1:1s, etc are going to be postponed or cancelled.
ββThe only exception is if there are sprint planning questions coming up that your PM and EM need input and help with, please expect to be available to give that help and advice if it is needed βπβ

ββOn the Demo Day, weβll have a video call to show what awesome things we all build. In addition we will likely also write a Thread to let everyone know what you all did βπβ
ββFor each project card, PMs will decide if/how to deliver to users βπβββ¨β
