Quick answers
Clear answers for organizers and participants.
Do event pages have to be public?
Public event pages are recommended so participants can see rules, tracks, and deadlines. Organizers can also run unlisted or private events.
How do teams form?
Participants can create a team, invite members by email, or browse teams that are looking for members and request to join.
Can teams be locked after the event starts?
Yes. Events can lock team changes after start time to prevent last-minute reshuffles (with organizer override if needed).
What can submissions require?
Organizers define a submission schema: repo link, pitch deck, description, images, video demo, or hardware check-in instructions.
