How will it work:
 * Each project team should take between 30 seconds and 2 minutes to present their hackathon project.
 * Project teams can use this time to do anything they want to showcase their work.
 * Projectors with sound connection are available to visually demo anything.
 * If you would like help putting together a good looking presentation or demo video, please ask!
 * Include as many links as you can to your work, phabricator tasks should be updated with a longer description and summary or the work and process.
