🛠️ How to Secure Your Spot
We have exactly 50 spots, and everyone will compete individually. We are selecting participants one week before the event. To climb the ranks and guarantee your spot, we will be prioritizing developers based on the following criteria:
Open Source Contributions: Whoever has merged the most PRs to github.com/rogerSuperBuilderAlpha/cursor-boston gets top priority. Get to work!
Community Profile: You must have a completed profile on cursorboston.com.
Discord Member: You must be in the Cursor Boston Discord server.
Sign-Up Order: Early birds get the worm.
Note: We will be rigorously qualifying participants. If selected participants don't meet the criteria or drop out, we will aggressively pull from the waitlist to ensure everyone gets an opportunity.
