Today is the last day to submit your projects for the First Commit hackathon. Here are some tips to help the judges understand your project.Write detailed answers. Explain the idea, the problem it solves and what the project actually does. If you are in a team, mention who did what.Record a demo, 3 minutes max. A screen recording or a phone video is fine. Record it before you start the form since uploads take time, and put it on YouTube as unlisted or public.If you have a live demo, make sure we can open it without signing up.Be clear about AWS. Which services you used, how you used them, and what feedback you have.The submission form is live on the event page on our website: https://www.wemakedevs.org/aws/first-commit/submitGood luck!
