Fantaze is a Football performances analysis web application for Fantasy sport, which supports Fantasy gamblers around the world. Developed with Python, Flask, React js, MongoDB.

Project Fantaze

A fantasy sport is a type of game where participants assemble imaginary teams composed of real players of a professional sport, with which they accumulate points throughout the season based on the players' performances in actual games.

Fantaze supports football fantasy gamblers around the world in the field of UEFA Champions League. By analyzing the players' performances (such as goals, assists, steals and fouls) and making conclusions based on them, we provide you with the ultimate team that will produce the most points possible, thus allow you to gamble smartly.

In addition, we take into account your football preferences. You can choose a desired football formation or pick some of your favorite players who would not necessarily have been selected by the algorithm.

Our football performances data was collected from API-Footabll (powered by rapid-API) and is stored using mongoDB.

The single page application UI was developed with React js and Java Script.

The server-side API was developed with Python.

The client-server communication is done by a Flask based HTTP server.
