Every competitor must have unique user credentials for logging into the system. If a user is restricted to have no internet access, the system will not allow them to log in until the internet access is properly limited to allow only the system IP. It is possible that competitors are also required to share their screen and camera when using the system.
If a competitor is required to share his screen and/or camera, an announcement will be made as soon as he enters the system.
When "OK" is clicked, two small windows for sharing will appear (if both screen and camera sharing are required). In the camera sharing window, "Allow while visiting the site" has to be clicked. In the screen sharing window, the small image that shows the screen has to be clicked, and then the now-active "Share" button has to be clicked.
After that, the camera and screen should be shared properly. This will be indicated by these dots turning green:
If any of the dots turn red, the corresponding icon has to be clicked to re-enable sharing.
Competition tasks become visible in the sidebar after the competition starts. If screen sharing is required, competition tasks won't be visible until the entire screen is shared.
"Communication" is used for asking questions, reading competition announcements, and viewing answers to questions.
A question can be asked with the form on the right. Answered questions have a blue background, while unanswered questions remain with a white background. Personal announcements are also shown in "Questions".
When a task is opened, the task statement can be read using the "Open" or "Download" buttons on the task page. Solutions can be submitted by either uploading the source code file in the "File" tab or pasting the code in the "Code" tab and clicking the "Send" button.
User tests allow competitors to execute solutions on the competition system on a provided input data in a file, following all task restrictions. After the evaluation finishes, a text file containing the produced output from the execution can be downloaded.
The indicated button provides additional information about user tests for the task. In addition to a file with input data, a file with expected output can be sent which will be used for comparison with the real produced output. If the task has a checker, then the checker will be used for the comparison.
Note that user tests may not be allowed for a task. Additionally, they may be allowed but without the option to send a file with expected output.
If user tests are allowed for a task, then there will be two main sections on the right which can be used for switching between submitting solutions and submitting user tests:
Every competitor must click the "Finish" button in the right part of the top bar, when he finishes:
