FAQ
Do I need coding experience?
Nope! We welcome hackers of all skill levels. Whether you've never written a line of code or you're building apps in your sleep, there's a place for you at Code Elevation. We'll have mentors available to help beginners.
Can I come solo?
Absolutely! You can register solo and we'll have a team formation session at the event to help you find teammates. You can also work on a project by yourself if you prefer.
What should I bring?
Bring your laptop, charger, water bottle, snacks (though we'll provide meals!), and any coding tools you like.
Is it really free?
Yes! Code Elevation is 100% free to attend. Meals, snacks, and swag are all included. Our amazing sponsors make this possible.
What do I build?
Anything you want! Web apps, mobile apps, AI projects, games, hardware hacks - if it's tech-related, it's fair game. The only limit is your imagination (and 48 hours).
