Studying CS with ADHD? You're not the only one.
Lecture halls weren't built for our brains. Deadlines hit different when time isn't real. We're bringing this community onto campuses — student chapters, meetups, and hackathons designed around how ADHD brains actually work.
The ADHD Hackathon
← yes, at YOUR university
We partner with computing societies and disability services to run hackathons that don't punish neurodivergent students:
⏱️
Short sprints, not all-nighters
ADHD-friendly format: 6-hour build windows with real breaks, not 48 hours of burnout cosplay.
🧑🤝🧑
Body doubling built in
Work rooms where everyone codes side by side. Quiet focus room, chaos room, pick your energy.
🚢
Shipped beats perfect
Judged on 'did you make a thing', not polish. Half-finished with a great story wins prizes.
💾
Everything goes on the wall
Every project ends up on the floppy disk wall with your name on it. Permanent proof you shipped.
Bring it to your campus
Student, society president, or staff — drop your details and we'll get in touch about chapters, hackathon dates, and how to get started. Zero cost to universities.
Meanwhile — the community is already open
No campus required. Join with GitHub, post what you're building, find your people today.
