A web app to create and solve mathematical problems for high school students training for the Math Olympiads. The app set weekly tasks, and users would get points if they solved them correctly during the first hour. In addition to working mainly on the front end using JavaScript, I set up some communication with the back end using Go.

Tournament Creator and Tracker
