    Hey, what gnome version are you on? I have tested it on gnome 42 and gnome 3.36 (though you would have to manually install it, the published extension is only 40+ )

Very helpful, it would be amazing if you add other OJs too (codechef, atcoder, dmoj, ... etc)

        The above API can be utilized to get other online judges' contests list. Or one can scrape the Codechef/Atcoder website to get the list of upcoming contests,

        I am planning to scrape those websites that don't have an API and host my own API on heroku that would aggregate the results. I could easily update the scrapers without having to push an update through the gnome-extensions website.

        I expect this to take a little while though (about a month) since this project is now a little low on my priority list.
