Check-ins on Devfolio are a breeze!

Devfolio provides an easy way to keep track of the attendees present at the hackathon through the Volunteer tab in the organizer dashboard.

The expected count at the bottom indicates the number of hackers who have confirmed their intention to attend the hackathon by completing the RSVP process.

An option to undo the action will briefly show up in the top left corner.

📌 Points to Note

  • Check-ins are individual-level and must be done for every team member.
  • Hackers must be checked-in to be allowed to submit their project on Devfolio.
  • Hackers who don’t check-in cannot claim participation or submit projects.
  • It’s good practice to assign Volunteer Tab access to multiple volunteers via the Team Tab and start check-ins early.
  • Only hackers who have RSVP'd can be checked in.
