<h2 id="platforms">Platforms</h2>
<p>By <em>awesome 🕶️ hackathon platforms</em>, we mean web or mobile
applications that are specifically designed to run a hackathon, or which
have effectively adapted for use in events of this type. They typically
allow organizers to announce the schedule and topics, register
participants, and document the results.</p>
<h3 id="open-source">Open Source 🌳</h3>
<blockquote>
<p>These can be run with a cloud provider or self-hosted, to take full
control of the data. Being open source efforts, they typically embrace
open standards. Several are developed by non-profits and volunteer
communities.</p>
