Events / Selected build record
Short deadlines. Real problems. Working systems.
A selected record of hackathons and builder communities that turned learning into working prototypes. This is not yet the complete event history; new entries will be added only after their dates, teams and outcomes are checked against the original files.
How to read the archive
More than attendance badges.
Every retained entry should answer three useful questions: what needed solving, what was actually built, and what came out of the work. The full archive can later expand this same structure with verified teams, dates and media.
- 01 / Problem
Start with a real brief.
Record the user, workflow or institutional problem—not just the event name.
- 02 / Build
Show working evidence.
Connect the summary to the prototype, diagram, photographs or original reflection.
- 03 / Outcome
State what changed.
Capture the result, lesson or project that continued after the deadline.
Selected participation
Hackathons and build sprints.
Each entry focuses on the challenge, role and outcome. Supporting project pages or original records are linked where they are already available.

Build receipts
Original posts and working evidence.
These are Puviin’s own records from the FormMind build, the Bank Negara Malaysia regulatory-document challenge and an AI-security learning event. Photographs, diagrams and the available demo remain attached to their original context.
My first 24H hackathon ever, it was wild but I would do it 10x over.
A build log from a 24-hour Cursor hackathon, introducing FormMind and its document-assisted form-filling workflow.
He who tries but fails, learns but he who never tries always fails to learn
A build log from the Bank Negara Malaysia regulatory-document challenge: a working n8n and Supabase prototype that placed third.
One of the best ways to understand something is to try to break it
A practical reflection on learning LLM security through prompt-injection and capture-the-flag challenges.
What carried forward
The event was useful when the method survived it.
Start with real work
The strongest briefs were not abstract demos: they involved regulatory change, repetitive documents and other workflows people already struggled with.
Make the idea testable
A working n8n flow or usable FormMind prototype made the trade-offs visible and gave teammates, judges and users something concrete to challenge.
Carry the useful parts forward
The deadline ends; the learning should not. FormMind continued beyond its first 24-hour build and became a larger document-automation project.
Independent coverage
The community-led learning path, reported by The Star.
Spoke about moving from mechanical engineering into AI-assisted software building, and how local communities made the learning curve practical.
