Introduction

Tools and Technologies

  • Eclipse and VS Code will be available on the lab computers for anyone who wants to use them.
  • You’re also welcome to bring your own laptop and use whatever tools, languages, or frameworks you’re most comfortable with.
  • No restrictions on tech stack — as long as your project runs and you can demo it, it’s fair game.

Inspiration

Not sure where to start? You can go for a simple, practical build or dive headfirst into the absurd. For those who want to lean into the “cursed calculator” vibe, check out this for inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zfuSBmU4_s

Remember, creativity is wide open here — practical innovations and intentionally strange UX are both encouraged.
