Hackathons
Hackathons are the quickest way to a shipped project with your name on it, and the online ones are open to anyone with a laptop. This list comes straight from Devpost's open listings. Filter for beginner tracks, pick a deadline you can actually hit, and go build something.
On F-1 or another student visa?
Entering a hackathon and building a project is generally fine. A cash prize can raise work-authorization and tax questions, so ask your DSO before you accept one. More in our guide.
