This is not a contest about typing code.
It is a vibe coding hackathon, where students build apps by talking with an AI.
The Jeonbuk State Office of Education called in middle and high schoolers from across the province,
and after two days of pre-training in late June, all 28 teams finished a working app on August 1.
Over a weekend in late June we ran the pre-training first, split between middle and high school.
On the main day the teams built their apps in the morning, and in the afternoon all 28 took the stage.

They picked problems in the cities they live in. A lot of the topics sat inside their daily radius — moving fire engines closer in advance, demand-responsive buses, a recycling game.
They tied climate data to food. What came out analysed public data — predicting the risk of skipped meals, simulating an apple orchard.
Two themes ran side by side, same day, same room.
The middle schoolers dug into what makes a city awkward, the high schoolers into the data,
and the two tracks produced work with a clearly different grain.
These are the projects built on Jitda during the camp and published to the gallery.
Nobody typed the code; each one came out of a day of talking with an AI.

What the Jeonbuk State Office of Education decided was the theme of the camp and who it was for.
Designing the pre-training, assigning teams, shaping the day, supporting the build, running the presentations and judging for 28 teams, publishing the work — Jitda took all of it.
The supervisor in charge had nothing separate to prepare on the day.
Because you build by talking with an AI, no prior programming is required. There is no need to narrow it to a club or to students taking informatics — you can recruit across the whole province.
We split the 112 students who came from across the province into 28 teams, and designed the schedule from the pre-training to the main day around the middle- and high-school tracks.
The students only had to open a browser. There was no need to match the different PC specs or install permissions at each school.
The app built in the morning went straight onto the stage in the afternoon. When the camp ends, each team’s project goes straight to the gallery, ready to use in the report on the event.
They built in the morning and presented in the afternoon.
A day when all 28 teams moved to the same rhythm.
