FAQ

Can I submit an existing project?

You need to create a new project for Fizzler, existing projects won't be accepted.

Can I submit my project for Summer of Making as well?

Unfortunately, no...

Is AI allowed?

We advise against it, since it removes the fun of making it yourself, but if you do use it, you need to say so on your submission form.

What platforms do I make my app for?

If you're making a desktop app then you only need one of Windows, MacOS, or Linux. If you're making a mobile app, then just Android. (IF IOS THEN REACH OUT TO US ON SLACK (#fizzlers))
