About The Multilingual Hackathon

The Multilingual Hackathon was a global online event that brought together developers, researchers, and creators from around the world. It provided a hands-on platform to build innovative multilingual AI projects while learning from workshops, connecting with peers, and participating in community-driven collaboration. Participants worked across different experience levels, explored cutting-edge language technologies, and contributed to the growing open-source ecosystem through impactful projects.

The hackathon we organised with WeMakeDevs was immensely successful. Not only did it bring us thousands of users, community members and GitHub stars but we were also very impressed with the projects participants submitted and what they built. So much so that it was difficult for us to pick winners.

Coding is step one. Selling the vision is step two. 🚀I’ve already shared the tech stack behind Globalfolio. Now, I want to share the vision. I created this 21-second commercial to highlight exactly why "Built-in Fluency" matters.
