Timing note: the announced end time is 2:30 PM, but the rough agenda below runs until 3:30 PM. Confirm the final schedule with the organizers before making travel plans.

Bring an idea. Build something together.

Prototype a new idea, make an open-source contribution, or explore tools you have been meaning to try. This session offers a supportive space to experiment, collaborate, and develop your skills.

The focus is a guided build sprint rather than a full-scale competitive hackathon. Google Developer Experts (GDEs) will be available throughout the session to answer questions, troubleshoot problems, and offer technical guidance.

Explore open-source and AI tools

Build with Google open-source and AI technologies such as Android NDK, Gemma, TensorFlow, Flutter, and Firebase Open Source SDKs. Choose a project that gives you a chance to learn by doing.

What to expect

  • Mentorship throughout the sprint: Get hands-on support from Google Developer Experts as you build.
  • Swag for the Top 10 projects: Selected projects will receive exclusive Google Developer swag.
  • Space to build: Desks and chairs are provided. Bring your own laptop and charger.
  • Community connections: Meet fellow developers and continue the conversation over lunch.
