Over the years this has been a focal point for both finishing existing development/releases and a catalyst for new ideas in FlightGear, as well as an opportunity for FlightGear enthusiasts to share a beer. Like in 2020 FSweekend 2021 was unfortunately cancelled due to COVID-19 uncertainties (it will maybe take place in March 2022). To keep the spirit alive and repeat the successful execution of the [[Virtual_FSweekend_Hackathon_2020|Virtual FSweekend Hackathon 2020]], we are planning to hold another Virtual FSweekend Hackathon on the weekend of 5/6/7 November 2021. | ||

While the core of the hackathon incl. support previously has been dedicated to development in the very core of FlightGear (mostly C++, [[Nasal_scripting_language|Nasal]] and xml), you are also welcome to participate if you are developing stuff, which contributes to the general FlightGear ecosystem (e.g. [[Addon]] or [[Osm2city.py|osm2city]]). However, you might need to provide your own support. | |||
