Project details
Overview
Find House in Sportmeet is a practical event-day tool for school sports meets. Students enter their index number and immediately see their assigned house. The same lookup exists as a Python desktop script and as a web app so it works on a teacher’s laptop or on phones in the ground.

Problem
On sports-meet morning, hundreds of students ask “which house am I?” Staff should not hunt a printed list. An index-number lookup that loads on a phone is the whole product — speed and accessibility beat features.
What I built
- Index-number → house lookup
- Python script for desktop / offline-ish staff use
- Web application for mobile and browser access
- Simple, fast UI for event day
- Vercel deployment of the web variant
Impact
- Used as a school event utility (MRC sports meet)
- Dual delivery (script + web) so the tool still works if the network is bad
- Public live URL and repo for a real operational need
Key features
- Index lookup
- Instant house result
- Desktop Python variant
- Mobile web variant
- Minimal UI, maximum clarity
Technologies
Python for the original script. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the web version, deployed on Vercel.
My role
Solo builder: data lookup, both clients, and the public deploy.
