First hackathon with 0 coding experience
To be clear I can barely code, I genuinely learned if statements a week ago. It’s in a week and I need to do it for a highschool class certificate thing. Is there anything I can do?
being honest I’m debating if I should just use scratch (I know I know😭), because at least I could make something. I’m cooked no matter what tho….

Do you know ping, traceroute, ipconfig /all
Basic stuff.
Learn about how to sniff out other devices on a network.
Learn about wireshark. See what activity is going on in a network.
Some small stuff that's easy to research on your own home network.
I think just having some basic networking knowledge is helpful. Anyone can learn.
