Challenge Summary

TopCoder are going to start taking some steps to refactor and improve the TopCoder community sites.

The first one we will start with is www.topcoder.com/tc.  The current structure forces the contest types to be split into separate pages (i.e.  there is a separate active/past/stats/etc. page for each contest type. Take development contest type for example, these links are http://www.topcoder.com/tc?module=ViewActiveContests&ph=113 , http://www.topcoder.com/tc?module=CompList&ph=113 , http://www.topcoder.com/tc?module=ContestStatus&pt=2)

We would like to refactor this so that we have flexibility in how they retrieve and display contest data.  Some of the goals include:

  • Consolidating the navigation on /tc
  • Allowing the member to filter contests how they choose instead of having to navigate to many different contest pages.
  • Provide more filtering options to users

The goal of this competition is to create Wireframes to show how you would restructure and illustrate the layout of /tc home page, navigation, and contests pages without defining the graphical -look and feel-.

Round 1

At the end of Round One, TopCoder will choose 5 winners; each will win $50 and a Design Review. These winners and any member who had a passing submission in Round One will be eligible to compete in Round 2 for the additional $1000 in prizes.

In this Round. competitors should finish all the required pages.

Round 2

Round 2 will start with the announcement of the five $50 Round 1 winners and the posting of their design reviews in the contest forum.
