Hackerspace Kraków
Kraków · Poland

A member-run hackerspace in Podgórze where software and hardware people share tools and a room: electronics benches, 3D printers, soldering, embedded and IoT projects, plus plenty of pure-software hacking. The weekly Friday NightHack is open to anyone and free to attend; regulars pay small optional monthly dues (roughly 50 to 75 PLN) for a 24/7 key fob. No application and no vetting: you show up, you build, and you join if the room fits.
