A WaForge Hackathon
Welcome to Idea Forge 2025, San Francisco’s premier software hackathon. This event is all about bringing together innovators, developers, and problem-solvers to push the boundaries of what’s possible with technology. Participants will design, build, and showcase impactful projects — from AI-powered apps to tools that improve sustainability, education, and community engagement.
Our mission is to create a space where creativity meets code — where students, hobbyists, and professionals can collaborate, learn, and prototype the next generation of software solutions.
Join us in San Francisco to code, brainstorm, and bring your ideas to life. No matter your skill level, you’ll find teammates, mentors, and resources to help forge your vision into reality.
