# GoatHacks Registration Management

This is a rewrite of the original (commit 198f56f2c47831c2f8c192fbb45a47f7b1fb4e5b)
management system for Flask 2.1 and Postgres. The focus was on maintainability
in the future and easy modifications for future years.

## Setting up a development environment
The `Makefile` should have a bunch of useful recipes for you. Once you clone the
repo for the first time, run `make init_env`, which will set up the virtual
environment for development. If the dependencies ever change, you can run `make
upgrade_env` to install the new packages.

To test your code, run `make daemon`, which will start a development server. It
will automatically reload after your changes.
