title: "Apache Arrow — Hackathon at Community over Code Glasgow 2026"
---

<img src="/images/apache-oak-leaf.svg" alt="Apache" style="height:1.4em; vertical-align:middle;"> **[Community over Code 2026](https://communityovercode.org) — Glasgow, UK, October 11–14**

**[Register now](https://communityovercode.apache.org/events/glasgow-2026/register)** | [Event website](https://communityovercode.org) | [Hackathon overview](hackathon.html)

## Apache Arrow — Hackathon

<!-- Copy this file to yourproject.md (lowercase, no spaces) and fill
in the sections below. Then add a link to your page from the table
in hackathon.md. Submit both changes as a single PR. -->

### Coordinator

<!-- Who is the point of contact for your project at the hackathon?
This person should be present at the event and available to help
participants get started. -->

* **Nic Crane** — thisisnic@apache.org
* **Matt Topol** — zeroshade@apache.org

### What We're Working On

<!-- Describe the kinds of tasks participants can expect. Be as specific
as you like — or link to a curated issue list. Indicate difficulty
levels where possible so participants can self-select. -->

We're focusing on:

* **Good first issues** — small, well-scoped tasks suitable for new
contributors: [GitHub issues labeled "good first issue"](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues?q=label%3A%22good+first+issue%22)
* **Documentation improvements** — help us improve our getting-started
guides and API docs
* **Bug fixes** — a curated set of bugs that are approachable with
mentoring support

### Resources

<!-- Link to anything that helps participants prepare or find their way
in — issue trackers, mailing list threads, discussion forums, chat
channels, contribution guides, dev environment setup docs, etc. -->

* [Contribution guide and dev setup](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/guide/index.html)
* [Dev mailing list thread about the hackathon](https://lists.apache.org/thread/zc9bkh7o4mmg5lzsfdy5v30fn634hyn0)
* [GitHub issues](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues)
* [Zulip](https://arrow-dev.zulipchat.com/)

### Getting Started Before the Event

<!-- Optional — if there's anything participants should do ahead of
time (clone a repo, set up a dev environment, read a doc), mention
it here so they can hit the ground running. -->

To make the most of hackathon time, we recommend:

1. Clone the repo and get the build working: [setup instructions](https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/index.html)
2. Browse the issue list and pick one that interests you
3. Introduce yourself on the dev@ list or chat channel
