  • Done: Show full names in the leaderboard instead of usernames.

  • Every single php file should be able to handle direct execution, in which case, either redirect to a proper place or show an echo message.

  • Files beginning with an underscore mostly contain helper functions and just work as include files.

  • The assets\js folder contains the js ajax handlers (_login.js && register.js)

  • Their php counterparts are kept in include\login && include\register.

  • _login.js is the ajax handler for login functions.

    • contains the form submit handler
    • which sends an async request to _login.php with form data
    • handles the response from the php file

  • _login.php does the backend stuff of login

    • recieves the data
    • sets the $_SESSION variables
    • and passes on a flag to the JS handler via echo

  • assets also contains 3rd party stuff like Bootstrap, jQuery etc. Add your own code into respective folders.

  • All javascript will be minified (or obfuscated) at the end of development.

  • Once the setup is on server, special care should be taken to ensure that none of the folders like includes etc are accessible by altering the URL.

Design ?

  • The pid method to access parts.
