How it works
The categories stay sealed until the build window opens. Think a themed brief, or a requirement to combine specific integrations, though the real list lands September 4, not before.
Warm up
Webinars, office hours, and walkthroughs to get you fluent in NanoClaw before the clock starts. All of it announced to the mailing list.
Categories drop, submissions open
The categories and requirements are revealed and the build window opens at the same moment, so everybody starts together.
Build
Build your template and record a demo showing it running. Office hours and a help thread run throughout.
Submissions close
Last call for templates and demo videos. Hard deadline.
Judging + community vote
The judging panel scores entries while the community votes on the Community Pick, both running in parallel.
Winners announced
Prizes awarded, and the standout templates get featured in the registry.
Come in warm
You can’t build your template early, but you can walk in already knowing the tooling cold. Stay updated by signing up to the hackathon above.
Webinars & walkthroughs
Live sessions on building with NanoClaw, so the hackathon isn’t your first time in the codebase.
Office hours
Time with the maintainers to ask the awkward questions before they cost you a build day.
Educational material
Guides and examples that get you fluent in what a good template looks like.
The category drop
Categories and requirements land September 4. List members hear the moment they go live.
