💫 Welcome!

Hello and Welcome to SparkHacks 2024 !!

SparkHacks is a 24-hour hackathon hosted by the Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois Chicago along with several different CS-based student organizations. This is the second iteration of SparkHacks and aims to provide an environment to learn, collaborate with peers, and build a project that tackles our problem statements for a chance to win prizes!

This is the perfect opportunity to diversify your skillset with skills you learn outside of your curriculum, a chance to attend workshops led by the industry, get free food, merch, swag and so much more.

We hope you enjoy yourself and code to your heart’s content :)
