The 2025 Open Components Hackathon brought the community together for a two week sprint that combined a Learnathon and a Hackathon. Participants explored new approaches in Bible technology, worked in teams, and presented their ideas at the end of the event.

The 2025 theme was Exploring Theia to make Bible translation software development globally accessible. Both the Learnathon and Hackathon were conducted online.
