#NYCSL
NYCSL, or the New York Computer Science League, is an online, high school programming competition. NYCSL2 is a rewrite of the original codebase with a focus on sustainability and newer tools (switching from PHP to Flask, from JQuery to React, etc).
Each month at midnight a new challenge is posted. Programmers in NYCSL have one month to upload as many solutions as they like; only the top score is shown. Solutions are instantly graded and put up on both global and school-wide leaderboards. Problems are designed such that they are suitable for programmers of all skill levels; beginners are encouraged to participate.
First, clone the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/HMProgrammingClub/NYCSL2.git
Then, install the backend's dependencies:
$ cd NYCSL2/backend && sudo ./install.sh
Then, run the backend:
$ sudo ./start.sh
If you would like to make sure that the backend is working as planned, you can run our test suite:
$ sudo ./runTests.sh
