Web app for the user for login, sign up and saving user preference. According to the preference of users, they will get reminders of contests hosted on CodeChef, Code-forces, Hacker-earth, Hacker-rank, and SPOJ.

As a competitive programmer, I always want to participate in every contest I can. But sometimes I forgot and misses the contests. Some of the platforms send reminders as CF sends reminds before 1 day, HE sends reminders via message.

So I decided to make an app that sends reminder mail(mail with clean design and contest link) uniformly just before an hour or half an hour And also I can change my preferences in between.
