Cases

Building an international hackathon platform in Python

How we built an international Python hackathon platform that handles high load and runs reliably.

Key takeaways

  • Hakaton Platform Development Python: case study describes business context, KT.Team delivery approach and measurable value for enterprise teams.
  • Delivered by KT.Team. The CIS source page carries the full project story, metrics and interface screenshots.

Challenge

Develop a platform for a major international hackathon with more than 10,000 participants.

Solution

Python is used as the back end for the PWA (specifically, the SPA) + Django. This gives the project flexibility and speeds up development overall.

Result

The project can handle heavy load: participant registration from around the world, assignment submission and acceptance by organizers, team creation by participants, and task completion. The system supports a defined set of rules, validates each participant's responses, compares them with the ideal solution, and checks compliance with a large number of conditions.
