  • Technical office hours: It is the new resource provided by the Pi Network where members of the Core Team will offer office hours to answer technical questions regarding building Pi apps, such as how to use the Pi SDK, Sandbox, Developer Portal, Pi App Engine, Brainstorm app, and so on. For office hours, please see the amended Pi Hackathon Agenda.
  • By August 15, Pi hackathon teams must submit just one sort of halfway check in, i.e., a video submission or a Zoom presentation. Videos can be uploaded by the developers using the provided link by the Pi Network or through video-update on the Pi Ecosystem Developer Discord server. Furthermore, teams will also have the option of submitting their halfway progress reports via a live Zoom presentation, which are detailed below.
  • A live-recorded Zoom 2-minute presentation with a Core Team member will serve as the Zoom halfway progress report. The Pi Core Team will keep track of presentation times and use Zoom to capture the developer’s presentation. Great projects will have their project presentations featured on social media as well as the Pi app’s home screen, according to the Pi Network announcement. On the Pi Ecosystem Developer Discord server, the signup sheet will be shared.
