​🎃 Makers Gonna Make Dundee - Halloween Edition

​(In partnership with Peter Trizuliak, the OG who's been running monthly MGM sessions at CodeBase Edinburgh - check the mothership at mgmmmmm.com)

​👻 What's this spooky session all about?

​Turn that "someday" idea into "done-today" reality. Makers Gonna Make is a full-day build sprint where you bring a project, work alongside other builders, and actually ship something tangible - whether that's a working prototype, a tested concept, or just progress on that thing you've been putting off. Then we celebrate your creations together at the end.

​🧙‍♀️ Who should join our Halloween hackers?

​Indie hackers, weekend tinkerers, late-night coders, no-coders, vibe-coders, writers crafting their next piece, creatives sketching ideas, entrepreneurs polishing business plans, designers prototyping concepts - basically anyone who's building something and needs focused headspace with the support of fellow makers. If you're creating something for the sheer joy of bringing ideas to life, you belong here.

​🚫 Who this isn't for

​Promoters, agencies, sales or hiring pitches. This space is for makers: turning ideas into real products, helping each other out, and giving honest feedback.
