Learn Mozaik
Mozaik is the TypeScript runtime for agents that work at the same time and never block each other.
Seven short lessons. From zero to a working team of agents.
Start the mini-course ↗The runtime, the cloud, the API. Quickstart first.

Details
Any developer. Enter solo and we'll help you find teammates, or bring a team of up to four. Students and professionals compete together.
Both. The on-site competition is at Science and Technology Park Novi Sad; the online track follows the same schedule, the same theme and the same jury. You choose when you register.
A working system where several agents run at the same time, sharing state and coordinating with each other rather than handing off in a fixed sequence. There's one open brief, announced at the kickoff, not separate tracks.
No. Mozaik is JigJoy's open-source TypeScript runtime for concurrent agents. Everyone registered gets the docs, a starter template and a primer before the kickoff, and mentors during the event.
30–31 October 2026. Registration closes 27 October. On 29 October there is a multi-hour Intro to Mozaik stream: what it is, examples built step by step, your questions answered live. Kickoff and the brief on Friday the 30th at NTP Novi Sad (streamed for the online track), submissions close on Saturday the 31st, winners are announced a week later, on 7 November. Exact hours come with the schedule email.
The detailed judging criteria and the judging cards the jury fills in are published before the hackathon starts, so you know exactly what is scored. Expect weight on genuine use of concurrency: agents that actually run together, not a sequential pipeline in disguise.
Nothing. Free to enter, on site or online.
