About
The Haskell Hackathon is an international, grassroots collaborative coding festival with a simple focus: build and improve Haskell libraries, tools, and infrastructure.
This is a great opportunity to meet your fellow haskellers in real life, find new contributors for your project, improve existing libraries and tools or even start new ones!
Sponsors
Provectus IT will host the Hackathon.

Visa information
Citizens of most European countries do not need a visa to stay in Ukraine for less than 90 days. Check here if in doubt.
Also note that a visa is typically required for work-related visits. Since you may have a hard time explaining to officials that you've come to write software for free, you'd rather not mention this fact.
Getting there
Odessa International Airport (ODS) has daily direct connections from and to Kyiv, Vienna, Istanbul, Warsaw, Prague and Moscow.
Through these it is connected to the most of Europe with just one stop.
