Hackathon sections
A build block where attendees form teams. The section shows your event's teams and who's on them.

What attendees see
A hackathon section shows each team, its open seats, and its members, updating live as people join. It links to your event's teams page, which is where people actually join and leave.
Set up teams
Teams belong to the event rather than the section, so a hackathon that runs across several days shows the same teams on each one. You manage them on the event's Teams tab, which the section's editor also shows.
- Add a hackathon section where it belongs in the day.
- On the Teams tab, set when team sign-ups open. That publishes the teams page.
- Create the teams, each with a name and how many seats it has.
- Optionally set when sign-ups close. After that people stop joining and leaving on their own, but you can still move them.
Joining a team needs a ticket to the event, and a person can be on one team at a time.
