The document provides an overview of Encode's Hack Africa Challenge involving building applications on SushiSwap, the decentralized exchange and automated market maker protocol deployed on over 17 blockchain networks. It outlines challenges for participants to collect and provide insights on multichain AMM activity, perform swaps with a front end or smart contract, or build a application on BentoBox, Sushi's token vault. The document also provides introductory information on getting started with Sushi including swapping tokens, familiarizing yourself with the interface, choosing a framework like React, and examples of how to call smart contract functions and perform token swaps.
