Tournament Manager for CS:GO
The idea is to make a tournament manager for csgo in a nice Django app, the tournament part is tightly connected with Toornament and the CSGO server part managment is done using RCON commands for the sake of setup simplicity as a standard default srcds can be used without modification
Some interesting read on how to manipulate dictionaries in python :https://realpython.com/python-dicts/
User managment set aside. Focusing on srcds server managment - add server in database, check server status and show it in the api.
avanced a bit on the user, group, roles fields. Found out thst the way i used in the program to initialize vars isn't so nice. Check https://blog.tecladocode.com/marshmallow-serialization-mongodb-python/.
for the api side i think using flask-restful seems the best choice, or at least the easiest way to do it for now. I also have created a mongodb altas free tier account and will be experimenting with data storage on mongodb
I am also setting up the project page to keep track of the functions

after a bit of research Django doesn't seem to fit the approach of the project, A client - server app does look more promising, the idea is to use flask as a backend api server and a frontend app to interact with the api, i have never coded a frontend app and am completely unfamiliar with any web app framework flask official doc : https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/
