Special Thank You to our Sponsors + Speakers
Hello Hackers!
As the Hackathon is wrapping up, we wanted to give a big thank you to our sponsors + speakers + and all of you! It has been an incredible experience, and we are so grateful for everyone who's helped along the way.
A message from our sponsor, Wolfram|Alpha:
Wolfram Research is pleased to sponsor your event by providing access to our latest technology, Wolfram|One! For complimentary access to our development platform and the Wolfram API, just click here:
https://account.wolfram.com/redeem/zPoweringSTEMHacks1222
This URL will take you to a sign-in page and prompt you to log in using your Wolfram ID. If you don't already have a Wolfram ID, you'll be prompted to create one using an active email address. Once logged in, you will see in the Downloads section which platforms of the software you have access to, with their accompanying activation keys. Please download the desktop version to your machine, boot up the application and use the associated activation key when prompted. This will grant you full access for 30 days from your activation date.
When you access Wolfram|One in the cloud for the first time, you can create a new notebook or load a pre-made Things to Try live notebook, which is designed to guide you through neat things you can immediately compute in the Wolfram Language.
You can use Wolfram|One to create instant web apps and APIs, or to deploy to mobile. The Wolfram Language is also bundled on the Raspberry Pi, where you can connect directly to hardware, including Arduino etc.
The fastest way to get an API up and running is detailed in the extensive Documentation Center available to you alongside your notebook: simply click the section in the documentation labeled Cloud and Deployment and select Instant APIs to access a handy how-to guide to help get you started.
To view your account details-- including your available Cloud Credits and Cloud storage-- or re-download Wolfram|One, visit the following page:

Wolfram|One is the world's first fully integrated cloud-desktop hybrid, integrated computation platform. The core of our technology stack is the Wolfram Language, which builds on three decades of development, and represents a new direction in programming-- that happens to be absolutely ideal for hackathons.
Wolfram offers several research-based educational programs for students interested in computational thinking, programming with the Wolfram Language, math, machine learning, innovative technology, scientific research, and project publication. Our programs include:
Wolfram Middle School Summer Camp for Girls ages 11-14
