Repo for my Spring 2020 RCOS project
IMLeauges is the current go-to website/application for intramural and club athletics. All existing intramural and club sports at RPI use IMLeagues.
The website, however, is awful. It has an old, intrusive, and unintiuitive interface, and is often unresponsive on most browsers because of all of the page requests from the ads. Adblockers don't work, and if you don't want to fork over the $4.99 to remove the ads, you'll just have to deal with it.
And, good luck using the IMLeagues mobile app. It's just as bad, with a UI that doesn't scale properly on new phones, is buggy and is unresponsive at times.
Ask any RPI student who has used IMLeagues, and they all have the same complaint - that IMLeagues sucks. So what if there was something to replace IMLeagues?
That's where Swish Sports comes in
Swish is an ambitious replacement for IMLeauges. The features closely mimic IMLeauges, less the ads and with a much cleaner, more streamlined user interface.

Email me at [email protected] and I'll add you as a contributor! I want this project to take off, and be used by campuses around the country. Testing will be done via the RPI campus though, as this is where the project is based out of.
- Make sure you have Python Flask and Angular 9 installed, as this project requires both
- We are working with the latest version of Python 3
- Angular requires
npm
, make sure you have Node installed - For Angular 9, a good learning resource for learning is the Angular Tour of Heroes
- The frontend team spent a good amount of time on ATOH to learn about components and Typescript
- Clone the repo to your local environment
- Install all Angular dependencies with
npm i
cd
to the /frontend folder and launch the UI withng serve -o
cd
to the /backend folder and start the server withpython app.py
- Begin adding features and debugging any issues you find! Happy contributing!
