Added write-up support, updated marketing pages, updated to Tailwind v4, began to rewrite pages and APIs for the new CTF event, polished site overall
Building a cybersecurity capture the flag (CTF) platform tailored for the CyberStudents community and organization, which will include: • dashboards for player, challenge, write-ups, and verification management; • anti-cheat technology and moderation; • learning content, resources, videos, and labs; • connections with various backend APIs and Discord bots; • donations with Stripe; • DevOps and infrastructure tooling like Docker, Grafana, Prometheus, GitHub Actions, and PostHog; and • marketing pages. Uses the T3 stack (TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind CSS, tRPC, Prisma w/ PostgreSQL). NB: AI use was limited to GitHub Copilot for code completion; no files were primarily AI-generated.
This was widely regarded as a great move by everyone.
