The HACKnight showcase is the traditional after-event of DINAcon, and an excellent way to get started as a contributor to open source.
During our traditional "apéro with keyboards", we welcome people and machines of all skill levels, inspired by open hackdays and hackergartens. On this page we post challenges, issues and activities from projects presented at DINAcon. We also provide a quick introduction to anyone interested in learning more about the activities of CH Open. All relevant proposals to start, improve or support open source projects are welcome. The entry is free, and so is the shell 🖪 and beer 🍺 thanks to all the partners and supporters of DINAcon! Please see the official DINAcon program for more details. A conference ticket is NOT required if you are only joining us for the HACKnight.
