My first 🚢! HackBackBetter, my hackathon, ran on the 22nd and 23rd of April (last weekend) and was pretty successful! We raised $6.2k in sponsorship from various companies with an incredibly easy experience thanks to Bank (poggers), had 40 out of our 90-100 registered attendees actually show up, and had 10 submitted projects, ranging from games to enterprise software to just straight up something nicknamed "uber but for trash"! Check out some pics below!!!!!! 🎉 🎉 🎉

Winter Hardware Wonderland #hardware-party There were complications in getting the Hack Club Bank to work and parts were slow to ship from overseas - but finally I got all the parts to work and here is the first prototype of the Triton Amphibious Rover! github.com/hackclub/winter/blob/main/thelouisgan.md The RC controlled rover features a LEGO Technic vehicle that I coupled with a motor, and for the water side of things I rigged an underwater motor and 3D printed rudder to a 25KG servo motor. All this is remotely controlled with an RC so that you can take it to explore different terrain and locations! It is also powered by a rechargeable LiPo battery and will be able to operate up to 15 minutes on a full charge in optimal conditions. Will update more photos and videos of it in action soon! Please do give feedback/suggestions as this is my first big scale project and thanks to @MelanieSmith and @belle for the support.

Winter Hardware Wonderland Day 3 :winter-hardware-wonderland: #hardware-party #WinterSnacks Today, I prepared some homemade cinnamon bread and placed it on a bed of sugar-coated coconut; we engineers need to keep our energy up! Lately, I have been trying to upload some code to my Romeo BLE (essentially a DFrobot Bluetooth-enabled Arduino Uno with motor controllers), It is not running yet, but I'm working on it! Also, I have put the bare-bones chassis together and am working on the insides. I hope everyone is doing well on their projects. Happy Hacking!

:winter-hardware-wonderland: Winter Hardware Wonderland! :winter-hardware-wonderland: ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ IntelliBag | Day 1 The first day of making IntelliBag! (name due for change soon). Nearly all my parts arrived in a last minute Amazon order, which worked out perfectly. This project is intended to be a “smart backpack” with a bunch of cool new features everyday! And today, for day 1, I’m doing a dry run of all the USB-based “wiring” and electronics. I’m going to keep all the electronics hidden in a secret flap of the bag, with waterproof port covers that are easy to access from the outside. Plus, the extension cable will be conveniently located next to the laptop slot. Even when it’s not in the bag, this setup is super powerful! I’m using a USB power bank that’s connected to a powered USB hub - this way, I can power any device I want and even give pass-through charging to my laptop! And the power bank itself has passthrough charging, which means that if I plug any USB-C charger into the external port, it’ll start charging every device in the bag AND store some charge in the battery itself! But that’s not all! The power bank supports both input and output for that port, so I can get high-wattage output too! I’m so excited to see how this all turns out - it’s going to be amazing! Diagram Below!

Day 1/10 of #hardware-party! Starting today, I’m going to spend a little time every day for the next 10 days building a split-flap display inspired by the parts list from @linkai here. It’ll be internet connected, so I can wire it up to show the current balance on :bank-hackclub-dark:. Today I wired up the hall-effect sensors that’ll control the split flaps, and wrote some test code to make sure they’re working the way I want them to. You can see the sensor working by how it flashes from the magnet. Once I have them working correctly I’ll start working on a motor housing in Fusion 360 that will hold the thing in place and connect it to the flaps. Excited to see the progress everyone else makes today! I’m going to spin up a repo tomorrow and show off my work there.

worked on automating a :bank-hackclub-dark: mailing list with @ella! we’ve had a mailing list before, but no way to control who we’re sending it to. now, if @OliviaCook announces a perk that’s just for high school hackathons, we can send it out to just organizers of high school hackathons. it all runs through postal.hackclub.com, so I also learned about how their API works (it’s weird– check out the docs if you dare: sendy.co/api)

Day 7 of #10-days-in-public. Almost done with the heatmap! I’m thinking of having two- one for money in, and one for money out. I think this does a good job of conveying when specifically money was raised and spent, as opposed to a line graph just showing money over time. Tomorrow I’ll try integrating it with Bank.

Day 5 of #10-days-in-public! I’m playing around with an analytics page that gives a quick overview about the financials for an org. It probably won’t ship though. I’ve figured out how to pull data from the backend into a chart! I’m having some issues with the other chart though… Chart.js can be really annoying sometimes. Another graph idea for the spending: a github contribution-like grid where it shows shades of green or red like the one on hackpenn.com/finances Thoughts and suggestions welcome!

🚢 WaiverKit: A tool for attendees to sign the Event Liability Release from :bank-hackclub-party-dark: 🚢 I revived PactMaker by Postmark (old libs and stuff) and replaced the default agreement with the one from Bank to create WaiverKit! WaiverKit allows attendees to fill out a regular form and by the end have a filled PDF with the waiver; no more hunting for the signature field. You can try the only instance, the :hackaustin-green-icon: Waiver Portal, at waiver.hackaustin.net You can deploy your own at github.com/hackaustin/WaiverKit Happy Legaling! :dino-drake-nah: DocuSign :dino-drake-yea: WaiverKit
