I run an office NFL confidence pool every year for some fun and bragging rights. I would like to make an app to do this instead of having to use a random website. Does anyone have some insight on how to make this possible? Thank you in advance!
I’m not familiar with how that would work. Can you explain what features would you need for an app like that?
Basically users pick 10 NFL games every week and rank them accordingly. They receive points if the team they chose wins. There would need to be registration, admin hub, leaderboard showing weekly results as well as overall and then a history of everyones picks
I would think that’s possible, basically you need:
- A users table to store all admins and users’ profiles.
- A matches table to add matches weekly.
- A records table to store predictions of each user for every match, and later on you would use a relation + lookup to get the correct result from the matches table, and calculate the scores for each user.
- Leaderboard can be built on top of the scores calculation above.
Hola Jordan,
Your idea y totally doable. I developed something similar for soccer games and it worked perfectly.
It’s based on the last “Copa America USA 2024” and here you can see and play it for a while:
Currently it’s in Spanish (it was my first version and I had to test it very well with my friends) but I think you can understand the flow and idea of my APP.
In Spanish we call this kind of game “Quiniela”.
Saludos!
