Live scoring
Real-time match scoring that teaches WebSocket updates, state synchronization and latency-aware UI design.
Project overview
An ongoing realtime sports project where contributors learn authentication, tournaments, scoring, leaderboards, live streaming, caching, and cross-platform engineering.
Pickelton brings Pickleball and Badminton communities together across a React Native mobile app and a Next.js web experience. Contributors learn registration, club management, tournament workflows, scheduling and bracket logic.
The project is ongoing, with the heart of the engineering challenge built around realtime: live scoring streams instantly, leaderboards update as matches play out, and different parts of the system stay synchronized through Redis caching and Redis pub/sub events.
Behind it all sits a Java 21 backend, JWT authentication, PostgreSQL data storage, WebSockets for realtime scoring, and a Golang live-streaming layer using WebRTC and HLS.
Real-time match scoring that teaches WebSocket updates, state synchronization and latency-aware UI design.
Standings and rankings update live as matches finish, powered by Redis cache and Redis pub/sub events.
Create and manage clubs, spin up tournaments, and run full brackets end to end.
Plan fixtures, manage rounds and keep everyone in sync across a tournament.
Statistics and insights that turn every match into a record of player progress.
A Golang streaming layer with WebRTC and HLS support creates a practical systems and media engineering challenge.
