Topics

Here are some ideas that people could work on during the Hackathon. It's good to know what to work on to get started right away. We're probably doing some kind of check-in at the beginning to see what individuals want to work on. It's OK to not have something right away. Maybe you can team up with someone working on something with a common interest.

When making changes, use the "Event: Oslo Hackathon 2025" line in your commit message.

Sessions

Sessions are intended for everyone to discuss a specific topic of interest. People are allowed to just listen, but the goal of the session is to both get something out of it and provide something of your own for the group of attendees.
