What You Can Build
Important Rules
- Submit original work only. No plagiarism or unauthorized reuse.
- Points are awarded only after a PR is reviewed and merged. Open or draft PRs do not count yet.
- Each participant can take only one issue at a time. Please finish or release your current claim before taking another one.
- Review responsiveness matters. If a PR review has no reply for one day, the issue may be reassigned to someone else.
- Do not break existing functionality. Follow InsForge architecture and repo direction.
- You can propose your own issue. The InsForge team will review it, assign a score, and then add it to the hackathon if approved.
- PRs must include runnable or verifiable results. Reviewers need a clear way to validate the outcome.
- All contributions must be license compatible. Do not introduce incompatible dependencies or terms.
- The InsForge team makes the final decision. This applies to scoring, approvals, and merges.
