Using Slack & Miro for Collaboration

This short video introduces how participants can use Slack and Miro effectively before and during the hackathon — to form teams, discuss ideas, interact with the organizers and collaborate with members even if they’re at different locations.
It walks you through joining the workspace, setting up team channels, and using Miro for brainstorming and project planning.

Important note: Access to the Miro Board with this year challenges will be provided on December 14, 2026, to ensure competition fairness.
