Are you a college student or working professional looking for resources to learn a new language? Are you looking to meet new people in your community or searching for global conferences, hackathons and competitions to attend? If so, you should definitely check this out.

When I was in college, I missed a lot of opportunities like hackathons, conferences, internships and many global events due to a lack of awareness. I don't want you to miss out due to a lack of information. Here I have collated lists of resources for students. If you are in college, or a college graduate, you should definitely check it out.
