AI Hackathon SFxHamburg Coderabbit x Windsurf Christmas edition
## Get ready to hack the holidays! 🎄✨
San Francisco x Hamburg
Forget the cookie exchanges and generic networking mixers. This December, we are turning up the heat. Join us for a high-intensity AI Sprint hosted in collaboration with Coderabbit and Windsurf.
Not quite like your causal X-mas gathering; this one is about shipping code. Whether you are a veteran ML engineer or a full-stack dev looking to leverage the latest in AI agents or just an AI enthusiast, this is your arena. You’ll have direct access to experts from Coderabbit and Windsurf to give you the edge you need.
We are looking for technicality, impact, scalability, and business sense. Come ready to team up, lock in, and deploy something impressive before the night ends.

🛠️ What to build?
Build an AI-powered product, agent, or system that solves a real problem and could realistically run in production. We care about working software over slides, with clear technical execution, smart architecture, and a credible user or business case. Ship something you would keep building after tonight, not a throwaway demo.
