Bits&Bytes Kolkata is a crew of teens who don't wait to be ready. We run hackathons, ship products, and build the next generation of Indian tech talent — right here in the City of Joy.
Our Claim
City of Joy.
City of Builders.
We didn't wait for someone else to build a tech community here. We just built it.
What We Do
FIVE WAYS WE BUILD.
HACKATHONS
High-stakes, teen-run competitions where you compete, present, and get noticed nationally. Real prizes, real judges, real consequences.
BUILD NIGHTS
48-hour sprints to ship something deployed. No decks. No fluff. You walk in with an idea and walk out with a URL.
WORKSHOPS
Technical sessions led by engineers working in the field — not academics. Hands on keyboard from minute one.
AI & ENGINEERING
Deep dives into ML, LLMs, and production toolchains. We don't just talk about AI — we build with it.
COMMUNITY
1500+ builders across India who collaborate year-round. Discord, meetups, code reviews, and peer accountability.
Voices from the crew
“The Kolkata fork is run by some of the youngest people, and we're building something crazy here.”
Shoryavardhaan Gupta
Fork Lead, Kolkata
