Welcome to the ORIGIN Hackathon Resources Hub.
This page is designed to help you get started, explore ideas, and find support throughout the hackathon. ORIGIN is tool-agnostic and open-ended, so these resources are optional guidance, not requirements. Use what helps you and ignore what doesn’t.

Whether you are building software, hardware, or an experimental concept, these resources aim to support creativity, learning, and meaningful impact.

You are free to use any tools or platforms. Below are commonly used options that may be helpful:

Development & Prototyping

• GitHub – version control and collaboration

• Figma – UI/UX design and prototyping

• Canva – presentations, visuals, and pitch decks

No-Code / Low-Code

• Lovable – AI-assisted app building

• Webflow / Framer – web prototyping

AI & Data

• Python, JavaScript, or other preferred languages

• Public AI APIs and open-source ML libraries

• Open datasets from government or research institutions

Hardware (Optional)

• Arduino / ESP32

• Common sensors (motion, temperature, humidity, vibration, etc.)

• Breadboards, jumper wires, and basic electronics

Use tools you already know or take this opportunity to experiment with something new.

If you’re unsure where to start, consider asking yourself:

• What does origin mean in today’s world?

• What traces do individuals or societies leave behind?

• How does technology influence memory, identity, or responsibility?

• What problem do you care about that technology could help address?

Look for inspiration in:

• History and human stories

• Social and environmental challenges

• Everyday systems we take for granted

• Ethical questions around technology

Strong projects often begin with a question, not a solution.

If you need help or have questions during the hackathon mail us at galineteam@gmail.com

Organizers will provide guidance related to rules, submissions, and general troubleshooting, but will not build or debug projects for teams.
