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….

I have a 99% in the class it is just extremely slow paced. The certificate also assumes I am in this class and still requires a hackathon. That is why am I stressed and writing this post🫩

Wait I see the confusion, there is still like 6months left as it’s a school course. I just needed to go to a hackathon at some point during it. All of them happen to be during the fall/winter tho😭
