Hi everyone!
My friend and I recently launched RescueHacks, a free online hackathon, and I thought the Glide community might be interested.
The idea is simple: build something that could save a life.
Maybe it’s an app that helps people during an emergency, keeps medical information organized, helps communities coordinate after a disaster, improves accessibility, or even prevents dangerous situations before they happen. If your project could make someone’s next few minutes a little safer, it fits the challenge.
One of the reasons I wanted to share it here is because Glide is such a great tool for building useful apps quickly. A RescueHack doesn’t have to be a huge AI project or a fully polished product. Even a simple Glide app that solves a real problem can have a meaningful impact.
The hackathon is completely online and beginner friendly, so no code and low code projects are welcome.

If this sounds interesting, we’d love to have some Glide builders join. I think this community could come up with some really creative ideas.
If you have any questions, I’m happy to answer them!
