🌟 Looking for Volunteer Judges & Mentors for a Beginner-Friendly Low/No Code Hackathon! 🌟

Hi everyone!

I’m an 18 year old student from Sri Lanka, and I recently participated in the "world’s largest hackathon presented by bolt". That experience inspired me to organize my own online hackathon for beginners and anyone interested in “vibe coding” using low-code, no-code, or AI-powered tools to build cool things.

I’m organizing "VibeCode": The Low/No Code Hackathon and I’d love to make it a welcoming, supportive event for all skill levels. To do that, I’m looking for a few awesome volunteers:

1. Judges

  • Review project submissions online after the hackathon ends.
  • Help select winners based on creativity, use of tools, and impact.
  • You don’t need prior judging experience—just a willingness to review projects and share your thoughts.

2. Mentors/Moderators

  • Hang out in our Discord server during the hackathon.
  • Answer questions, help with any technical issues participants' face, encourage participants, and help keep things friendly.
  • If you’ve never mentored before, that’s totally fine! This is a great way to get involved and support beginners.

No experience required—just a passion for tech and helping others!

If you’re interested, please comment below or email me at chalithawidusahan@gmail.com

If you have any advice for a first-time organizer, I’d love to hear it too!

Thank you so much for reading, and for any support or encouragement.
Let’s help more people discover the fun of building with low/no code!

(P.S. If you enjoy making simple digital badges or certificates, I’d love help with that too!)

Thank you!
