Welcome to OFFGRID, a hackathon by Hack47.

Hack47 is Delhi’s first hacker house — a 30-day residency bringing together 16 builders to live, work, experiment, and build together.

OFFGRID brings that same builder-first energy to the wider community.

You don’t need permission to build something interesting. Pick a problem, find an opportunity, and ship.

Learn more about Hack47, the hacker house, its philosophy, and the builders behind it.

Use GitHub to host your source code, collaborate with teammates, and manage your project.

Use your Devpost project page to document your build, add your demo, and submit your final project.

You’re free to use the tools that help you build faster — including AI coding assistants, APIs, open-source models, cloud platforms, databases, and developer frameworks.

There is no required technology stack.

If you’re stuck, don’t overthink it.

Talk to another builder.
Ask your teammates.
Try a different approach.
Ship a smaller version.

The goal of OFFGRID isn’t to build the biggest project.

It’s to build something worth continuing after the hackathon ends.

Some useful starting points:

• GitHub — Source control and collaboration
• Vercel — Deployment and hosting
• Supabase — Database and backend infrastructure
• Firebase — Backend and application infrastructure
• Hugging Face — AI models and datasets
• OpenAI / Gemini / Anthropic APIs — AI capabilities
• Cursor / Claude Code / other AI coding tools — AI-assisted development

Use whatever fits your project. There are no mandatory tools.

Your imagination is the constraint.
