About the challenge
Design4Future is a beginner-friendly hackathon where participants create tools that help people stay productive, organized, and in control of their daily lives.
Every day, people struggle with things like managing time, staying consistent, making decisions, and keeping up with responsibilities. In this hackathon, you’ll design and build solutions that tackle these real-world challenges in practical and meaningful ways.
