RULES + FAQ
What counts?
Short version: make browser-adjacent stuff and submit it through the form.
it runs
Submit something real that people can open. Stickers are baseline.
it is useful
Useful browser projects can get gear, like a good wireless mouse.
it feels complete
Complete projects can get bigger rewards, like a keyboard or browser subscription grant.
it is kind of wild
A polished browser engine, or something equally ambitious, can get a portable monitor.
What counts as "browser-related"?
Anything tied to browsing: browser, extension, browsing buddy, tab toy, or weirder thing. If unsure, ask in Slack.
Do I need experience building browser engines?
No. Start from wherever you are. A simple project that actually ships beats an ambitious one that doesn't.
What language should I use?
Any language. C++ and Rust make sense for browser engines. Extensions and buddies can be built in almost anything.
What decides which prize tier I get?
Reviewers look at whether it runs, how complete it feels, and how ambitious the idea is.
What's the deadline?
Submit when ready. If a cutoff gets announced, Slack and this page will say so.
How do I submit?
Use the Hack Club submission form linked from the Submit page.
