Kiro is currently on waitlist, How to get access for this hackathon?
Is there any special access for hackathon participants?
Waitlist will impact our participation, Can we start without Kiro till we are in waitlist and then move the code to Kiro?

We will be discussing with the Kiro team on adjusting the hackathon timeline.

Limited access to Kiro poses a major challenge for us—and time is running out. While everyone remains on the waitlist, we’d greatly appreciate it if Kiro could make an exception for hackathon participants to help accelerate innovation.

Hi Benie, the Kiro team is working hard to work through this. We will be adjusting the hackathon timeline soon!

So can those who have Kiro start building their projects now?

We're also following the same issue, how are we supposed to use Kiro if they have put us on waitlist?

Hello, it’s been talked about that Kiro can be installed without a waitlist by using Homebrew:
`brew install --cask kiro`
Does this command install the official version?
If it’s official and guaranteed to be safe, then everyone should use this method to install it.

`brew install --cask kiro`
for MacOS - this is indeed the official version taken directly from Kiro.dev you can run 'brew list kiro' and it will give you the info and source link

We have closed the registration of the hackathon at this point. Please look out for future Kiro hackathons!

Still waiting for access to Kiro :(

Even direct installation (like `brew install --cask kiro`) does not solve the issue.
You must create an account for Kiro, and then it puts you on a waitlist :)))
Seems like this Hackathon is only for chosen ones. Today is August, 5th, and 25th is the deadline.
Do they really expect us to build something valuable in AI Coder (which will be extremely buggish I promise you) just in few days?
LoL :))
