Welcome to the basalt wiki!

Basalt is a desktop and web application that allows users to easily participate in or manage programming competitions. It's meant to be a modern, FOSS alternative to PC^2.

The web application powered by NextJS is brought to the desktop using Tauri. Basalt leans heavily on the Rust programming language for its performance, safety, and robust type system. To avoid having to design a component library from scratch, we are making use of the incredibly popular ShadCN library for React.
