I know I’m jumping the gun here (GTA6 isn’t out until Fall 2025!), but I’m excited to share this passion project I’ve been working on since Dec 2024. It’s called GTA6 Events - a web app that might help future GTA6 players find teammates and schedule gaming sessions together.
What Does It Do?
I built this app to solve a problem I’ll face when GTA6 launches - finding good teammates when I need them. As someone who plans to play a lot of GTA6, I want to…
- Create gaming sessions with specific missions or activities in mind
- Browse upcoming events and join ones that interest me
- See details like session duration, player requirements etc.
How I Built It
I built this with Python Flask. Initially I tried with React but the Agent always struggled with React. Although not perfect, still a few glitches here and there.
Challenges
The biggest challenges I encountered were:
- Implementing Sendgrid Email confirmation ( I hope this still works
) - User Authentication
- The search feature (still needs more work)
The app is live here https://app.gta6.events or https://gta6events.replit.app/
Feel free to try it out and let me know if you encounter any issues or bugs.
I hope the Sendgrid email confirmation still works…
