HH Goa

About this build

One photo in.
One pass out.

A single-purpose tool for Hacker House Goa 2026. It puts your photo inside the event’s own design and hands you back an image you can post. That is the whole product — closer to a one-template Canva than to a social app.

How it works

  1. Upload one photo

    Straight from the camera roll. JPG, PNG, or the HEIC an iPhone actually gives you. Portrait, landscape, off-centre — none of it needs cropping first.

  2. It gets framed

    Your photo is placed inside the HH Goa 2026 pass — composited, never altered. No filters, no face edits, no generated pixels. The face that goes in is the face that comes out.

  3. Download and post

    A real image file, not a screenshot of a web page. Then straight to X with the caption and #FrameInGoa already written.

What it deliberately isn’t

  • No login, no signup, no email capture — there is nothing between you and the tool.
  • No upload by default: the photo is read in your browser and never sent to a server.
  • No AI face edits or background removal. Compositing is faster and never looks uncanny.
  • No gallery, no profiles, no feed. It makes one image and gets out of the way.

The event

Hacker House Goa — 28–31 Oct 2026, Goa, India. 4 days. One rhythm. Everything intentional. A four-day build station for 500 builders, run by 2:47 pm Studio.
