Project troubleshooting Q&A
summary
Live Q&A covers hackathon rules, submission checklist and concrete fixes: judges score on 5 judging criteria (UI/UX, technical depth, originality, practicality, wow), submissions must change chain state and include a public repo plus a 3‑minute video by June 9. Practical tips: use mock functions for unit tests, run integration with npx functions hardhat simulate, split VRF work into batched callbacks to avoid gas caps, and prefer Functions over external adapters for off‑chain compute and API calls; ask followups on Stack Overflow tagged chainlink.
