Info
GGJ2026 at Noisebridge is being hosted by Bay Area Devs Collective.
In order to promote the health, safety, and well-being of all the participants due to the global pandemic, this event will still be a hybrid event, both online and in-person if desired. HOWEVER, WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE FOLKS TO COME TO THE SPACE IN PERSON (at least for the opening and closing ceremonies!)
The online portion of the event will be held in the Noisebridge Hackerspace Discord.
PLEASE TAG YOURSELF WITH THE @GGJ2023 role in discord to receive jam-related announcements. (using "?rank ggj23")
We hope that everyone enjoys this event! :D
