[BUG] Report: Hackathon Filter Displays No Results

[BekkamMallishwari]

Describe the Bug

When the Hackathon tag is selected on the Events page, the application displays "No events found" even though hackathon events are expected to be available. This may indicate an issue with the filtering logic or event data.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the Events page.
2. Navigate to the Tags section.
3. Click on the Hackathon tag.
4. Observe that the page displays "No events found" instead of showing hackathon events.

Expected Behavior

Selecting the Hackathon tag should display all events categorized as hackathons. If no hackathons are available, the application should clearly indicate that no hackathon events currently exist.

Actual Behavior

The page immediately displays the "No events found" message after selecting the Hackathon tag.

Screenshots/Gifs

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS / Windows / Linux
• Browser: Chrome / Firefox / Safari / Edge
• Node Version: v20.x.x

Additional Context

Possible causes include:

• Hackathon events are not being fetched from the backend.
• The tag name used in filtering does not match the event data.
• The filtering logic is incorrectly excluding hackathon events.
• Event data has missing or inconsistent tag values.

Suggested Fix

• Verify that hackathon events exist in the data source.
• Ensure the tag value used for filtering matches the stored event tags.
• Test the filtering logic with sample hackathon data.
• Display a loading state while events are being fetched before showing the empty-state message.
