An all-in-one platform for hackathon registration & logistics, originally developed for BrickHack and WiCHacks at RIT.
This project has been archived and is no longer maintained. No new features, bug fixes, or security updates will be made. Issues and pull requests are closed.
HackathonManager handled the full lifecycle of hackathon attendee management: applications, MyMLH-based login, admissions & RSVPs, bus list coordination, email communication, and analytics dashboards. It was built with Ruby on Rails and designed to run as a standalone app alongside your marketing site.
HackathonManager was actively developed from 2016–2021 across 49 releases and 1,077 commits. It powered registration for multiple BrickHack and WiCHacks events and was adopted by other hackathons as well.
A v3.0.0 rewrite was started but never completed.
