*At the Indic Wikimedia Hackathon 2023, you can:*
- Collaborate on technical projects

- Address technical challenges and bugs
- Brainstorm tooling ideas
- Network with fellow contributors
The event is for everyone who contributes to Wikimedia’s technical spaces,
code developers, maintainers, translators, designers, technical writers and
other related technical aspects. Along with that, contributors who don't
necessarily contribute to technical spaces but have good understanding of
issues on wikis and can work with developers in addressing them can join
too. You can come with a project in mind, join an existing project, or
create something new with others. The goal of this event is to bring
together technical contributors from India to resolve pending technical
issues, bugs, brainstorm on tooling ideas, and foster connections between
contributors.
Scholarships are offered to assist you in attending the event, which will
cover expenses such as travel, accommodation, food, and related costs.
