Hack Club is a nonprofit network of student-led high school coding clubs.
The typical Hack Club is led by 2-3 students, has 15-20 members, and meets weekly after school for 1.5 hours. Meetings resemble mini-hackathons, where students learn to code by building self-directed projects. As clubs mature, they attend hackathons, run outreach programs at middle and elementary schools, and host their own events.
Hack Club is an entirely open source organization (even our finances!). This repository is where we store most of our written materials.

- Pick an issue that nobody has claimed and start working on it. First time contributors should look for the "first-timers-only" label on issues.
- Fork the project (Need help forking a project?). You'll do all of your work on your forked copy.
- Create a branch specific to the issue or feature you are working on. Push your work on that branch (Need help with branching?).
- Name the branch something like
fixes-xxx-issueoradd-xxx-featurewherexxxis a short description of the changes or feature you are adding. - Once your code is ready, submit a pull request from your branch to Hack Club's
masterbranch. We'll do a quick review and give you feedback.
Now you can add a Hack Club banner to your club or personal website! Just copy and paste one of these snippets of code into your site's HTML.
You can also change the size or placement of your banner by editing the CSS in the style attribute of the image.
