Events
We host consistent programming for builders at every stage. Build-a-thons, workshops, pitch parties, and more. All events are open to the community unless otherwise noted.
Upcoming Events
Warrior Build With AI Workshop
Join us for a day of hands-on, project-based learning focused on understanding and using common AI tools. We will create and deploy a live web application as well as cover AI chat tool overviews for personal, educational, and professional use cases.
User Testing Exchange
Builders with existing applications will participate in group user testing. Each attendee will have focused time where the group will user test their app and provide feedback. This is a peer support-based builder circle facilitated by Detroit Hacker House coaches.
Warrior Spring Break Build Retreat
