Hackathon at Community over Code Glasgow 2026
Community over Code 2026 — Glasgow, UK, October 11–14
Hackathon
We’re bringing back the hackathon! Community over Code Glasgow will include dedicated time and space for contributors — new and experienced — to sit together and work on real tasks: fixing bugs, writing docs, tackling issues that need focused attention, and onboarding new contributors.
How it works
Each participating project provides:
- A point of contact — someone present at the event to coordinate
- A task list — bugs, docs, features, good-first-issues, or whatever the project wants to focus on
- Promotion — letting their community know this is happening
During the event, a dedicated room will be available for contributors to gather, collaborate, and get things done.
Participating Projects
The following Apache projects have confirmed participation. Follow the thread links to see the conversation and find out how to get involved with each project’s hackathon effort.
Eventually each project will have a dedicated page with hackathon task ideas and contributor guidance.
Want your project to participate?

We need a point of contact, a list of tasks for contributors to work on, and a message to your dev@ and users@ lists letting people know it’s happening.

General hackathon coordination happens on the planners@apachecon.com mailing list and in the #hackathon channel on apachecon.slack.com.
