Not your average hackathon. Code Hypothesis is where builders test strange theories through code, no-code, or anything in between. You don’t pitch your idea. You test it. Think:
Can dating apps work without pictures?
Can news go viral without outrage?
Can you build an app that deletes itself after one use?
This is where code meets graffiti — raw, fast, chaotic, and real. You’ve got 24 hours to build something that proves a point. 🧪 THEME & VIBE Visual:
Hacker terminal aesthetic
Neon green on concrete
CRT glitches, graffiti, and pixel chaos
Philosophy:Don’t build to win. Build to say something. 👥 WHO SHOULD JOIN
First-time hackers
No-coders and tinkerers
Indie makers
Students, misfits, and Gen Z creatives
Anyone with a bold hypothesis

Mid-November – Winners announced at the Grand Indian Hackathon Ceremony
This hackathon is part of the Grand Indian Hackathon Season (GIHS) — a three-month sprint featuring 10 unique hackathons.
All prizes feed into an ever-expanding season-wide prize pool, currently at ₹50,000+. Each hackathon has its own winners and shoutouts, but the bigger rewards are revealed at the Grand Indian Hackathon Ceremony in November, where the best projects from across all events are celebrated together.
Because the prize pool grows as we bring in more partners, sponsors, and communities, we encourage participants to join the Discord server for the latest updates on prizes, collabs, and surprise drops throughout the season.
