Herald DevCorps UI Visual Community, a student-led community at Herald College Kathmandu, successfully organized the nonstop 24-hour 'Code Brisk Hackathon 2023', at Kuri Village Kalinchowk. Situated at an altitude of 3447m above sea level, Code Brisk marks the hackathon held at the highest altitude.
A total of 13 colleges participated in the hackathon, with three outstanding teams chosen to construct their prototypes at Kalinchowk.
