"I had a ton of fun at HackBeanpot! We made a Chrome extension that censored inappropriate language on the internet. My favorite part was when one of my teammates got an animated duck to quack when clicking on the extension icon!"

"I joined the astronaut bootcamp event in 2021, and I wanted to highlight my great experience there. I was able to connect with friendly people, learn about web development through workshops, and have free pizza for lunch! It was a really unique experience I had during the weekend, and this event also gave me motivation for me to join my first hackathon event in bostonhacks!"

"I loved the collaboration between me, my teammates, and the amazing mentors! I really felt like it was a very welcoming environment for me to prioritize learning and having fun over 3 days. Prior to this hackathon I had never touched any kind of React or front-end web development but I came out of it feeling accomplished, having achieved a working website!"
