Their entry will be reviewed to recognise: -The creativity or originality of the project idea -The use of code and its complexity -How well they present or describe the project in the submission -How well the project fits into the theme Young people get to create a project using whatever coding language they want, such as Scratch, Python, HTML/CSS, App Inventor, or Blender!
