Recently, I decided to design a hackathon from A to Z.

Besides creating the stages themselves (which I will delve into in another blog post, I hope), I couldn’t find any open source software to manage the hackathon itself (which will be discussed, you guessed it, in yet another blog post).

Some details:

  • Frontend: React 17 (Typescript)
  • Backend: Django 3.2 & DRF (Python 3.9)
  • User auth system (I didn’t get to implementing social auth)

Available here: hack_a_track


🚨 UPDATE! 🚨
I did eventually find one: CTFd.
It seems like a much more serious effort than my system, but since I’d already written mine, I decided to share it anyway!
