Why Hackathons are the easiest things ever

For any newbie in the world of tech, the word "Hackathon" feels daunting. But here's the catch, these are one of the most easiest platforms to compete and win prizes. Whether you are an experienced programmer or know absolutely nothing about coding, "hackathons" are for you.
From workshops to mini-events to project submissions, you end up learning a lot more things in a fast pace than you normally would have done.
Along with technical proficiency, you also have a chance to improve your soft skills by interacting with people form all over the world.
I would also personally recommend any beginner to start with the hackathons listed on mlh.io. These are perfect for any level of hacker.
Hackathons are beginner-friendly environments where you can make new friends, turn some awesome ideas into reality, win prizes, and get free swag! If you don't know how to code, that's totally okay!
All that matters is you are willing to learn and want to improve your expertise in the field.
Keep LEARNING. Keep CODING.
