Streamline Hackathons with HackOps: Your All-in-One Event Management Solution!

Comment

Inspiration

We organized an hackathon back in January. There are various tasks to make a hackathon successful from Assigning Mentors, Distributing Inventories to Managing the Dinner. These tasks must be done effectively in order to have life long memories in the Hackathon.

So, we have come up with a complete Hackathon Management Platform, HackOps which handles all your manual hassles and creates a enjoyable hackathon to the organizers as well.

What it does

HackOps provide a comprehensive lists of all the upcoming hackathons registered in our platform. The hackers can get all the information's about the hackathons in one place.

The hackers then selects the hackathons and registers for the hackathons. Our system will send them a uniquely identifiable username and password which will be required to access the dashboard.

The dashboard consists of the team information's, get the notifications and alerts of the upcoming events or major announcements. The dashboard will also have the information's of the Mentors with their availability times.

How we built it

We gathered all the tasks that needs to be done in the hackathons by the organizers and created the flow of the hackathon in terms of technality from the perspective of a hacker and a organizer.

Then we started working in the UI part of the platform, parallelly working on building our APIs. We then incorporated all the changes to build a complete solutions.

We were facing difficulties integrating multiple platforms into our system. We failed to incorporate the QRs into our platform.
