// ABOUT THE EVENT
Students who've
never seen themselves
in tech. Yet.

CodeDay is an overnight coding event for high schoolers who don't usually consider themselves "tech people." In 24 hours, they go from zero to shipping something: a game, an app, a tool they built themselves.

Many will write their first line of code. Most will surprise themselves.

A parallel mini-experience built around your product runs live throughout the night. Here's what that looks like — built as a working example in a day.

// EXAMPLE — RL AGENTS LEARNING FOOTBALL
// LIVE TRAINING LOOP
NEON 0 : 0 AMBER
TICK 0000 | PACE 1.00 | CHAOS 0.58
Agents are scanning field states and selecting actions.

Example: students sign up to your product to spawn an agent, use features to earn speed boosts, and hit milestones to unlock new abilities - running all 24 hours.
