NYU Hackdays
Hackdays is a meetup based on the philosophy that:
  • You're a lot more productive when there's a time limit
  • When learning to code, the fastest way to learn is to make something
  • The best way to be introduced to new programming concepts is by interacting withother hackers
Our next meeting is:
