Build a distributed app prototype in a weekend!

Familiarize yourself with a new coding paradigm and learn tools for the rapid development of decentralized applications. Holochain is a post-blockchain protocol for storing data in a completely peer-2-peer network. Join co-founder Art Brock and members of the Holochain team at Bushwick Generator for a weekend workshop on using the technology. We're excited to be partnering with the @buchxgenerator (twitter) and their community who regularly host Decentralized Meetups in the beautiful space.





Friday, June 8th 6:00PM—9:00PM @ Bushwick Generator

Saturday, June 9th 10:00AM—8:00PM @ Bushwick Generator

Sunday, June 10th 11:00AM—6:00PM @ Bushwick Generator



Note 1: Friday's session is free and open to the public.



Note 2: Tickets help us cover snack and lunches for the event. Thanks for your support!







Are you interested in building decentralised applications?

Holochain is a breakthrough in the scalability of distributed computing that allows you to run Facebook scale applications on a decentralized architecture. Holochain dApps (hApps) are held completely by their users in a peer-2-peer network. Users are directly connected in a data commons with no centralised server or cloud processing data between them. Holochain is currently in Alpha with a number of prototype apps available to play with. This weekend is an opportunity to come get started on building your own!

Hackathon Structure

Project co-founder Art Brock will introduce people to building in the Holochain framework. We encourage people to come with distributed app ideas. Experience with either JavaScript or Lisp will be helpful, but not mandatory.

The Friday evening session will be held at the Bushwick Generator offices at 215 Moore Streett in Brooklyn. It will include an introduction to the technology from Art with an inital Q&A. This session is free and open to the public.

Saturday and Sunday attendees will experience short educational sessions alternating with unstructured time for learning and collaboration with the goal of building an app prototype.
