Add Hackathon

Tips and tools for running tolerant and productive hackathons. We started this list a year ago to connect with other hackathon organizers. In my opinion, hackathons are placed perfectly at the intersection of awesome "Learning" and "Security" topics.

• Non-generated Markdown file in a GitHub repo. ✔️

• Has consistent formatting and proper spelling/grammar. ✔️
• Doesn't use hard-wrapping. ✔️
• Doesn't include a Travis badge.
  You can still use Travis for list linting, but the badge has no value in the readme. ✔️
• Doesn't include an Inspired by awesome-foo or Inspired by the Awesome project kinda link at the top of the readme. The Awesome badge is enough. ✔️

Here are a few comments:

• Several items don't have descriptions. Although the titles are somewhat descriptive, it is recommended to add an explicit description.
• Some items don't follow the format - [iOS](…) - Mobile operating system for Apple phones and tablets., i.e. the dash etc.

Apart from that, nice job! The list looks very useful.

PS: What is that "unicorn" thing that everybody is commenting?

Thanks for making an Awesome list! 🙌

It looks like you didn't read the guidelines closely enough. I noticed multiple things that are not followed. Try going through the list point for point to ensure you follow it. I spent a lot of time creating the guidelines so I wouldn't have to comment on common mistakes, and rather spend my time improving Awesome.

@steven2358 @sindresorhus

Great feedback! I've revised the list to confirm even more closely to the guidelines (I read them carefully, trust me, but there are a lot of things to think about!) In addition to revisions to the list, I have moved the location of the entry to the arguably more appropriate 'Security' section.

Please add yourself as reviewer to approve the Pull Request (top right of the page) - thanks!

Not completely there yet: "Your entry should be added at the bottom of the appropriate category."

🙈 Reverted back to previous location. Thx @steven2358

[loleg]

Woo, thank you. By the way, the 'unicorn' is one of the things the guidelines ask you to do..

This is my first review of an Awesome list, so I may not be the best at judging.
The categorizing seemed somewhat confusing to me, especially the subcategories for tools (which I'm not sure is necessary).
My other suggestion would be to find companies that have hackathons. I know Microsoft has one.

[modenero]

this is a fantastic list! definitely a topic that i'm very interested in, so i'm sure i'll be using it's resources in the near future.

the only "style" comment I would make is to: use > to "quote" the explanations you offer under each new section, eg.

By awesome hackathon platforms, we mean web or mobile applications that are specifically designed to run a hackathon, or which have effectively adapted for use in events of this type. They typically allow organizers to announce the schedule and topics, register participants, and document the results.

otherwise, really terrific! 👍

Thanks @Symbitic @modenero and @andrzejsydor

I've incorporated your content and formatting suggestions.
