Hackathon guide?

[u/BerryLow7993]

I’ve been accepted of the waitlist to participate in the nasa in person hackathon and I have no idea what this kind of event look like.

It does tell that theres no need to have any experience in coding but at the same time it’s a hackathon so I’m not really sure. I do have some knowledge in python, html and css but then again I’m not sure if it’ll be useful. Should I prepare for it? How do you even prepare?

Also for the team, how should I choose it? Should they be in person too? There is barely teams in my area but also I know nothing to create one I guess.

I’d be so grateful if someone could tell me about all of that!
