The Holiday Cheer Hackathon is a two week event that provides support and community to all developers who may be unable to see their friends and family during this holiday season. This panel is one of multiple social and educational events during this period, while everyone is encouraged to work together on projects that will span from holiday cards and songs to stories and, of course, games!
