Learn how to plan and run a Hackasaurus hack jam.
Hackasaurus is an open source toolkit that lets people see and play with the building blocks of the Web. Hackasaurus Jams help people explore and learn Web Literacy skills by taking apart and making things on the Web. These events help participants see the Web as a hand-made public asset for creativity.
In this challenge, you'll learn how to use the Hackasaurus tools, dabble with the basics of HTML and CSS, and meet new people. Then, you'll design and implement your own unique Hackasaurus Jam to share webmaking skills with others.
