¶ Purpose
This wiki is written for people involved in a contest, not for programmers. Use this wiki as a tool to help navigate and use SquirrelScore.
¶ Before You Begin
- You are on wiki.squirrelscore.com
- You know which hat you wear: producer, judge, tallymaster, contestant, volunteer, or audience member/guest
¶ Finding a page
- Start at Home. The role table is the fastest shortcut.
- Use the sidebar. High-level folders get you close; the classic tree shows every page if you like more granular lists.
- Use Search for a word you already know (
lock,survey,hub). Start typing and it'll start searching. - On a phone, open the wiki menu, then the page. Pictures and flow diagrams sit above the long text so you can skim thru and get the gist of how it works.
¶ How each how-to is built
Most pages use the same shape:
| Section | What it is for |
|---|---|
| Purpose | Why you are here |
| Before You Begin | What to have ready |
| Step-by-Step | Numbered clicks, plus a small flowchart |
| Tips / Mistakes / FAQ | The “please don’t do this on contest day” bits |
Flowcharts are simple boxes: start at the top, follow the arrows.
¶ Tips
- If a screenshot is still a “TODO” note, follow the numbered steps anyway — the buttons should match the app.
- What's new is the "highlight reel" for something that just changed.
- In-app Wiki/Support will land you at the wiki Home, the help links at the tops of the pages should take you to the relevant wiki page.
¶ Common Mistakes
- Searching for programmer words (
API,UUID). Search for the button name you see (Save Scores,Release Results). - Skipping Before You Begin and then wondering what the instructions are talking about.
