Students of all skill levels are encouraged to participate in the competition, and no previous coding experience is required. The App Challenge’s student submission portal is now open. Applications must be submitted by October 30, 2025, at 11:00 AM CT. The CAC accepts computer programs (or apps) written in any programming language (C, C++, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, “block code,” etc.), for any platform (desktop/PC, web, mobile, etc.). Students may register as individuals or as teams of up to four students. The winner from South Dakota, chosen by a panel of expert judges, will be featured on CongressionalAppChallenge.us. The winning app will also be eligible to be on display in the U.S. Capitol, honoring the winners from across the country. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T00:49:36Z |
