What is CodeNova?

CodeNova is an in-person annual open coding competition, powered by iCodejr.com. It is an award-winning platform for students to enhance collaboration, build cognitive creative skills, & showcase their coding proficiency… and the best part is, it’s FREE!

Students from Grades 1-13 from across the UAE come together under one-roof to compete against other coders for the coveted title of ‘CodeNova Champions’!

CodeNova is an individual-format hackathon where students compete in 3 grade groups; grades 1-4, 5-8 & 9-13, and will have a 2-hour coding window to complete their projects.

We look forward to meeting the best coders UAE has to offer!
