Table columns

Name/email, Team, Track, Check-in status, Role, Registration status, and Registration date. Use the search box to filter by name, email, or team. Use the status dropdown to filter by Pending / Confirmed / Waitlisted / Cancelled.

Bulk actions

Select rows with the checkboxes, then use the toolbar to Confirm, Send to waitlist, or Export CSV. The CSV includes: name, email, team, track, checked_in, role, status, registered_at.

Adding people directly

Click Add people to import registrants without the public form. Three modes:

• Single — type one email address.
• Bulk paste — paste multiple emails separated by newline, comma, or semicolon. A live counter shows how many valid emails were detected.
• CSV upload — upload a .csv file. The first column must be the email address; a header row is auto-detected and skipped.

Choose an initial status (Confirmed or Pending) before importing. Duplicate emails are skipped automatically.

Teams board

All teams shown as cards. Each card shows the team name, status badge (Forming → Building → Submitted), tagline, member count, invite code, and any skill needs. The lead member is tagged. Click the trash icon to delete a team (requires confirmation).

Creating a team as organizer

Click + Create team, enter a name, and optionally search and assign members from your registrant list. Only registrants with a Ribat account will be added at creation time.

Skill matchmaking

If there are solo participants (no team) and open teams with skill needs, a Match solo participants card appears. Each open team lists its best-matching solo participant by skill overlap. Click Match to open a ranked list and add someone to the team with one click.

QR scanner

Click Start scanner to activate the device camera. Attendees present the QR code from their registration confirmation email. A successful scan shows a "Checked in" toast; scanning the same code again shows "Already checked in".

Offline support: If the device loses connectivity, scans are queued locally and sync automatically when the connection is restored. The queue count is shown above the camera view.

Projection QR code

The large QR code on the left is a deep link for staff devices to jump straight into the scanner. It is not the same code attendees use — attendees scan their personal QR from their confirmation email.

Manual check-in

Search by name or email and check someone in without a QR code. Useful for participants who lost their confirmation email.

1. Define judging criteria

Add criteria with a name, description, weight, and max score. Judges see each criterion and its description while scoring. Weights determine how much each criterion contributes to the final score.

2. Invite judges

Enter a judge's email and click Invite. They must already have a Ribat account. An invitation email is sent with a link to their judging dashboard.

3. Auto-assign submissions

Enter a round number and how many submissions each judge should review. Click Auto-assign to distribute projects across judges with conflict-free, load-balanced allocation.

Leaderboard

Live results table ranked by normalized score. Normalization computes a z-score per judge before averaging, reducing the effect of harsh or lenient raters. Raw average is shown alongside for reference. Results are grouped by track if tracks are defined.

Composing a message

Write your message in the textarea (up to 5,000 characters). A live counter shows how many characters remain. Select one or more channels, then click Send broadcast.

Channels

Broadcast history

All previous broadcasts are listed below the composer with the message body, channel badges, time sent, and recipient count for email sends.

What's shown

Event name, tagline, description, date/time, venue (or "Online"), track badges, and the upcoming schedule. A View submissions button links to the gallery once projects are submitted.

Registration form

Shown when Registration open is on. The email field is always present. Custom fields defined in the Form Builder appear below it. Required fields are marked with *. On success, the page shows: "You're in — check your email for confirmation and your check-in QR code."

Rate limit: 5 registrations per 60 seconds per IP address.

Gallery

At /h/[slug]/gallery. Public list of submitted projects showing title, summary, tech stack (up to 5 badges), and a demo link where provided.

Home

Dashboard with four cards: team status, submission status, announcements preview (3 most recent, unread highlighted), and schedule preview (next 5 items).

Team

If you're on a team, shows team name, status, invite code, member list, and a Looking for field (team lead only). Options if you have no team:

• Create a team — name (required, max 80 chars), tagline (optional, max 160 chars), optional track.
• Join via invite code — enter the 6-character code a teammate shares with you.
• Browse open teams — list of teams accepting new members, with skill needs shown. Join with one click.

Submit

You must be on a team to submit. Fields:

Use Save draft to save progress. Use Submit for judging to enter the judging queue. You can re-submit and edit until the organizer closes submissions.

Announcements

Full feed of organizer broadcasts, newest first (up to 50). New announcements appear instantly as a toast notification and in the feed without a page refresh. Unread items have a highlighted background.
