Shipaton: Lahore π΅π°
βPakistan's first Shipaton IRL event. π΅π°
βShipaton is RevenueCat's global mobile hackathon β over $700,000 in cash prizes for developers who ship a brand-new app to the App Store, Google Play, or Samsung Galaxy Store between August 1 and September 30, 2026.
βBuilders from Tokyo to Barcelona to St. Louis are gathering in person this year. Now Lahore joins them.
βWhat we're doing
βThis is a working meetup, not a conference. Come hang out with other people who are actually building and shipping.
βA quick intro to Shipaton β the rules, the 21 prize categories, and which ones you can realistically win
βShort demos from local builders: show what you're working on, get feedback in the room
βThe Next Gen Award walkthrough β the student-only category that needs no paid Apple or Google developer account, just a video and open-source code
βOfficial Shipaton swag, stickers, and the Ship-a-little trophy for the best demo of the day
βWho should come
βiOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native developers. Students who've never shipped an app. Designers. Indie hackers. People building with AI coding tools. First-timers are genuinely welcome β half the point of Shipaton is getting people to finally ship the thing they've been sitting on.
βBefore you come

βBring a laptop if you want to build. Bring a phone if you want to demo.
βSpots are limited and registration is subject to approval.
