Judging Criteria
User Experience / User Interface
Assessing the ease of use and aesthetics of your project. Does it effectively accomplish its intended purpose in a user-friendly and approachable manner?
Originality / Uniqueness
Determining whether your project is a novel idea or if similar ones have been executed before.
Technicality
Evaluating the complexity of the problem you are solving, including the number of components involved. Did you develop it in an efficient manner, or did you add too many unnecessary components? Is your code well-structured and clean?
Feasibility
Assessing whether your project is likely to be successful in the marketplace. Does it have a target market, a clear value proposition, and a competitive advantage?
Moonshot Potential
Beyond practical considerations, we also welcome radical and visionary projects that have the potential to revolutionize industries or create entirely new ones. Is your project a "moonshot" idea that could lead to a billion-dollar business or a breakthrough in your field? We encourage you to think big and propose bold, daring solutions.
Wow Factor
Additional points will be given for any exceptional aspects of your project not covered by the above criteria.
