Hackathon Resources

Strong Recommendation: Join the Starknet Discord Now!

Before diving into resources, we strongly advise all participants to join the official Starknet Discord (https://discord.com/invite/starknet-community).

It’s the essential hub for:

  • Real-time Q\&A
  • In-depth technical discussions with core developers
  • Fast help from dedicated moderators

You can use agent.starknet.io to ask questions. Our assistant is available 24/7 and will likely provide you with the answer right away

This complements our Telegram channels perfectly and will supercharge your hackathon experience, especially for complex topics like Cairo debugging or sponsor integrations (e.g., Bitcoin bridging with Xverse).

Pro Tip: Post your questions there too, it’s often the fastest way to get help on advanced Starknet queries!
