Civic Hacknight #182 with Laura Chang & Alex Jung: CodeAcross Report-back

CodeAcross is a community hackathon hosted by Civic Tech Toronto each year on Open Data Day. This year's took place at Artscape Daniels Launchpad on Saturday, March 2nd.

Missed it and curious how it went? Or were you there and want to chat more about it over pizza? This is the night! We'll share reflections and have some folks present their ideas from the hackathon.

Come help us chip away at civic problems by combining technology with the power of our community. We've got everything you need for a perfect Tuesday night: a presentation to learn from, some projects to work on, and pizza (or other food) to snack on!
