LFC.DEV - Hackathon v1 @ Fractal Tech
Join us for our first hackathon on Jan 18th in NYC with Fractal Tech! The goal will be to build something on top of Bluesky’s AT Protocol firehose or Jetstream.
Don’t feel you’re technical enough to build something? Come and try your hand at using AI coding tools like Cursor or Windsurf. All code written here should be MIT licensed so that any team member can continue to build on it. We will invite Externs from past batches of Fractal Tech to join us and lend a hand to get projects a bit further along.

Additionally, here are some things people have built so far to get the creative juices flowing:
