Judging Criteria

For the main Klaytn Tracks, there will be two rounds of judging - once to select 5 finalists for each track, and once to select the winner of each track after the live demo sessions. During each round of judging, submissions will be graded on a 1-10 scale in each of the following categories:

Originality: Does the template incorporate something entirely novel, or at least take a fresh approach to an existing problem?
Execution: Is the build usable in its current state? Is the user experience smooth? Does everything appear to work? Is it well designed?
Practicality: Is the idea practical? Is it something people would actually use? Is it relevant to Klaytn’s focused initiatives?
Learning: Did the individual or team stretch themselves and push the boundaries of learning in this space?
Sustainability: Is the solution or idea sustainable in the Klaytn ecosystem?

For the Sponsors’ Bounties, there will be one round of judging by representatives appointed by the sponsors of each bounty. Each sponsor will judge based on their specific criteria, and will select winners based on the structure of their bounty prize.
