FAQ

Common Questions

Do I need to own a Normie to participate?
No! The API is completely free and open. You can access pixel data, traits, images, and metadata for all 10,000 Normies without owning any. The hackathon is open to everyone.
What can I build?
Anything that uses the Normies API. Games, tools, art generators, analytics dashboards, social apps, AI experiments, browser extensions, bots — there are no restrictions on what you can create. Be creative!
Can I use AI to help me build?
Absolutely! We encourage it. We provide LLM-ready documentation specifically for this purpose. Copy the docs from the "LLM Docs" section above and paste them into ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, or any AI coding assistant to get started immediately.
Is there a rate limit?
Yes, 60 requests per minute per IP address (sliding window). This should be more than enough for most applications. Rate limit headers are included in every response so you can track your usage.
Do I need an API key?
No. The API is completely open — no authentication, no API keys, no sign-up required. Just start making requests.
Can I participate as a team?
Yes! Solo builders and teams are both welcome. Just submit one entry per project.
What are the judging criteria?
Projects will be evaluated on creativity, technical execution, use of the Normies API, and overall polish. We're looking for projects that are fun, useful, or push the boundaries of what's possible with on-chain data.
