Submitting your final build

Finished building your project IRL?

Two things you need to do:

  1. Post a demo on Reddit! Here's an example of a post by @cyao.
  2. For those who made a custom project - make a magazine page for it! Instructions on this Figma design file - we're going to physically print out a magazine, where each page has a project on it.

Then, fill out the Demo Form - we'll look at it in a few days and let you know if it's been approved!
