During the coronavirus outbreak, we could be gathered at home for hackathon. “hackathon” is “hackers’ marathon”. In recent years, g0v Hackathon has more diversification participants than before. We attempt to invite more citizens from different fields to contribute their ideas and enthusiasm. If a “newbie” (a person who never join hackathon) want to participate in g0v Hackathon, how should they start? This topic will take you into the world of hackathon hand in hand, and will also take the g0v “Hack from Home” Hackathon as an example, to explain “how to host the online hackathon”.
