The most important push for India is due in its software sector and this would only be possible when the services crowd would become the developer crowd”, The gist of the saying is that we need to have a more upcoming and determined crowd who would be enthusiastic to contribute to the fundamentals of the entrepreneurship in the Indian working domain.

One of the largest online hackathon of Kerala, 15 days of hack wishes to bring together the collaborators between the industry and the academia to come up with some interesting projects which would be instrumental in solving daunting global problems and also to contribute to the various aspects of the computer domains. We are offering an awesome community building platform for the same. 15 days of hack will also provide the developers with the insights to get under the skin of the global challenges and also guide the developers to come up with some instrumental result. We are also very much interested in having some novice to be developers who can contribute to the learning environment of the event. There would certainly be takeaways for all level of developers.

It would be highly appreciated for the participants to use the latest trends in the technology domains. The use of blockchain technology, data science techniques, machine learning stack, react js, node js might just add up to the points to get you on the good side of the jury. It would also be appreciated by us if there is ample participation of women in the hack.
