ASSEMBLEA 6-Hour Vibe Coding Hackathon

Every squad gets a randomly generated hero codename, a power (domain) to master, and six hours on the clock. No long weekends. No half-finished decks. Just fast, focused, vibe-driven building — then you ship.

Every squad gets a hero codename

Build fast.
Build in character.

ASSEMBLE is a 6-hour vibe coding hackathon — short enough for an afternoon, intense enough to feel like a real op. Register and your squad is issued a hero codename, Avengers-roster style. It becomes your identity on the leaderboard, the schedule, and the winners' wall.

"It's not the six hours you have. It's what you ship in them."

FAQ
Do I need a team before I register?

Yes — squads of 2 to 4. If you don't have a full squad, list yourself as a solo applicant on the register page and we'll help you slot into one before the event.

Is there a registration fee?

Yes — a flat ₹200 per squad, whether you compete on-campus or remotely.

Can non-CS students join?

Absolutely. Vibe coding welcomes design, product, and no-code contributors — every squad just needs at least one member comfortable shipping code.

What does "vibe coding" mean here?

Building fast and iteratively with AI-assisted tools, rapid prototyping, and a focus on shipping a working demo over a polished pitch deck.
