What is FLUX?
FLUX is not just another hackathon. It's a movement to empower the next generation of builders in India. We believe in learning by doing, breaking things, and collaborating to build solutions that actually matter.
Whether you are a seasoned open-source contributor or a first-year student writing your first line of code, FLUX provides the environment, mentorship, and resources you need to ship your ideas.

Founder's Corner
The minds behind the FLUX movement and their vision for the next generation of builders.
"FLUX '26 is built on the philosophy of shipping real products. We want to bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world software engineering by empowering students to build what they want."
