Chris this looks great! Would it be a good idea to have them identify their deployment technology... or only if they describe deployment as a learning goal?

@audreyandoy I think it's very useful for them to identify how they intend to deploy. Historically it's been a key learning goals for everyone, where applicable.

@CheezItMan Should we allow multiple concept submissions again? I believe in C14 we allowed up to 3?

Also, what do you think about students submitting their concepts in markdown as a PR (similar to submission for projects)?
