How to stand out (TUN tip)
Before applying, pick one project (coursework or personal) that shows how you turned an idea into a working solution and be ready to explain your choices and tradeoffs. If you’ve used any of the listed languages or frameworks (e.g., React or FastAPI), briefly connect that experience to what you’d build on-site in Indianapolis.
