uOttaApp - Hackathon Application Tracker

Overview

 
uOttaApp is a web application forked from HackMIT’s open-source hackathon management portal. I built it for my university’s hackathon, uOttaHack, to save our organizing team hundreds of hours spent filtering and sorting through participant applications. It also offers participants an easy way to track their engagement and application status.
 
Currently live @ https://apply.uottahack.ca/ check it out :)
