A dictionary/glossary of terms related to hackathons, developed during the hack-the-hackathon (vol 2) conference.
The scope of these dictionary is intentionally limited to words that are either unique to hackathons or that have special, particular meaning in a hackathon context. It does not intended to define words that are used in the hackathon context in the same way that they are used in other contexts. (For example, "fundraising" and "venue" are critical concepts for hackathons but the words are generally used for hackathons the same way as for other events.)
If you'd like to suggest changes or add new terms, input is welcome in the form of Github Pull Requests! You will find the individual definitions in markdown files at https://github.com/hackthackathon/hacktionary/tree/main/content, and you can modify those files directly in a PR. If you want to add a new term, you are welcome to make a copy of https://github.com/hackthackathon/hacktionary/blob/main/content/_template_.md to a new file for the new term, and submit a PR adding that file.
