Introduction

Welcome to Loohacks! To help you build impactful, cloud-driven solutions for logistics and supply chain challenges during our 48-hour event, we’ve put together a central hub of tools, documentation, and support channels. Everything you need to get started, brainstorm ideas, and troubleshoot your builds is right here.

Tools and Technologies

  • AWS Cloud & Core Services: Leverage participant credits to build your backend, data pipelines, and machine learning models on AWS.

  • Workshops & Tutorials: Access introductory material and core-services sessions (such as Kiro and cloud architecture primers) provided by our partner speakers.

  • IoT & Data Tools: Recommended libraries and frameworks for handling tracking, routing, and warehouse telemetry data.

Inspiration

  • Core Challenge Domains: Look into modern pain points within supply chain optimization, inventory management in warehouses, fleet routing for trucking, and manufacturing product lines.

  • Cloud-First Architecture: Consider how tracking, forecasting, and real-time data streaming naturally align with cloud pipelines and machine learning workloads.

Contact Us & Support Channels

  • On-Site & Floor Mentors: AWS staff, community builders, and technical mentors will be stationed on the floor throughout the weekend to help unblock your code.
