RustWeek Hackathon

We’re excited to welcome everyone attending RustWeek 2026 for another collaborative day of coding!

This year, we’re partnering up with Zed and Kiesraad (Dutch Electoral Council) to bring you some fun challenges to hack on.

The Electoral Council’s Abacus engineers will be on-site to collaborate with you on software for election results and seat allocation, with several good first issues and challenges, and they would love your input and proof-of-concept ideas!

You do not need a ticket to the RustWeek conference to attend the hackathon. We will provide coffee, tea, lunch and refreshments.

The hackathon will be held at Kinepolis, the same venue as the conference.

Schedule
Doors open: 9:00
Opening: 9.30
Lunch: 13:30
Wrapping up: 17.30
