About the Hackathon
## Vibe Code Web3Conf 2025: Idea Stage
## Welcome to Something Special
Hey there, innovators!
We're thrilled to introduce you to **Vibe Code Web3Conf 2025** – a unique opportunity to be part of something genuinely exciting in the world of AI and Web3 development.
### What is Vibe Coding?
If you haven’t heard of vibe coding yet, you’re in for a treat. It’s this amazing new way of programming where instead of writing every single line of code manually, you simply describe what you want to build in everyday language, and AI tools help bring your ideas to life. Think of it as having a brilliant coding companion who understands your vision and helps you turn it into reality.
It’s democratizing programming in ways we never thought possible, and we believe it’s going to change how we build the future of Web3.
### Here’s How This Works
Right now, we’re in what we like to call the **Idea Stage**. This isn’t your typical hackathon – we’re doing something a bit different, and we think you’re going to love it.
**Your Mission:**
Submit your most innovative idea along with a working prototype or MVP that showcases what you want to build.
**The Timeline:**
- **Now through Monday, September 15th**: Share your brilliant ideas with us
- **Tuesday, September 17th**: We’ll announce the selected teams
- **Thursday, September 26th, 3:30–7:30 PM**: Main event at **ITC Dwarka**, New Delhi
### What We’re Looking For
We want to see your creativity shine through ideas that blend AI and Web3 in ways that could genuinely make a difference. Whether it’s solving a problem you’ve been thinking about, improving how things work in the blockchain space, or creating something entirely new – we’re here for it.
Here’s what would make us excited to see your submission:
- **Your unique perspective** on combining AI with Web3 technology
- **A working prototype** that demonstrates your core concept
- **Clear thinking** about the problem you’re solving
- **Genuine enthusiasm** for building something meaningful
- **Thoughtful use** of vibe coding approaches
### What You Need to Submit
Don’t worry – we’re not asking for anything overwhelming:
- **Your idea in writing** (500–1000 words) — tell us what you want to build and why it matters
- **A working prototype or MVP** — something that shows your concept in action
- **Technical details** — tools and technologies you plan to use
- **About your team** — who you are and what skills you bring
- **Pick a track** — choose from our six focus areas (see below)
- **A short video** (2–3 minutes, optional but recommended) — show us your prototype and explain your vision
