FAQ
Can I get more than one thing?
Yes. It’s a cart, with quantities. The only rule is the cart can’t cost more hours than you’ve logged.
Do I have to use Hackatime?
For software you need to use hackatime to count your hours, for hardware, you can either journal or use lapse!
What if my cart costs more than my hours?
You can log more hours and submit it :)
Does it have to be finished?
It has to work. Hardware gets some slack on "works" because parts show up late and things catch fire.
