Rising Strong From Digital Ashes
After a long era of dormancy, the Duo Keyboard Koalition emerges stronger than ever. We are not just another tech community—we are the next generation of Champions.
The hackathon ecosystem has fundamental gaps that we're here to fill:
Current Pain Points:
- Organizations like MLH and Hackathon Canada coordinate events and enforce codes of conduct, but they rarely nurture the networks their events create
- Devpost lacks LinkedIn-like features for hackers to connect and collaborate beyond competitions
- LinkedIn is too formal for the creative, fast-paced hacker mindset
- Twitter becomes a shouting match where ideas get lost in the noise
What's Missing: The Winners
Organizations focus on sponsors, volunteers, and logistics. But they overlook the true stars—the Winners who spend 36 sleepless hours earning their moment of glory. That fleeting recognition is what we're after.
We're building the infrastructure to create and celebrate the next generation of Champions:
- Connect with fellow hackers on Discord
- Share project insights and collaborate beyond events
- Build lasting relationships in the tech community
- Spotlight the champions who deserve recognition
- Track specialties and skills through project portfolios
- Create a space where winners can inspire the next wave
- Twitter integration for idea sharing and project updates
- Enhanced Devpost-like tracking of hacker specialties
- Community-driven project discovery and collaboration
While MLH and Hackathon Canada provide the foundation, we provide what they cannot:
The Network Effect - Turning 36-hour sprints into lifelong connections
The Recognition - Celebrating winners beyond the closing ceremony
The Community - A space where innovation thrives year-round, not just during events
