The rundown
Clubs discovering the joy of code.
Hack Clubs meet weekly in schools and communities. Leaders kick things off, members build websites, apps, and games at their own pace, then everyone demos what they made.
1
A group of teens gathers. Leaders introduce a project direction and get everyone started.
2
Everyone starts building. Members work independently and help each other ship something real.
3
Every meeting ends with demos. Showing your work creates momentum, confidence, and community.
Clubs also run and attend hackathons, join year-long programs, and grow with other student leaders worldwide.
