Subject: [NSRCA-discussion] Patternscoring status

I've had a lot of queries about the pattern scoring site and the scoring system in general.  Just wanted to give y'all an update.

If you saw my note earlier this year, PatternScoring went down hard when AWS did an update (as they do!) and the older versions of react, etc. I had been using for PatternScoring no longer worked.

I tried the "easy" route of getting stuff updated to latest but finally gave up due to significant breaking changes between the version I'd been using and newer versions (all for good reasons).

So I decided to rewrite (which will also wind up being a re-write of the score adapter eventually).  This "should be" easy except that I work for a startup that keeps me pretty busy.  After several aborted attempts, I'm finally making some progress!

Believe it or not, the screenshot below represents a significant leap forward:

  *   I've (re)climbed the learning curve of modern React and the latest CSS stylings and components.
  *   I've climbed the learning curve of a modern client/server framework for things like this (NextJS) which happens to coincide with stuff I also needed to learn for my role at Hydrow
  *   I'm successfully making calls to my existing score database
  *   I'm successfully populating the left nav with all the contests, etc. with a nice expansion model so it remembers the district you had open in one year, so when you open a different year, the same district you had open will also be expanded.

>From here, it's a relatively short lift to get the rest of the web scoreboard up and running and I'll be making a push toward that this weekend and beyond.

Sorry for the long delay!
