• Possibility to create and play private CTFs
• Create "guests" to your CTFs

Build

For most people, this will suffice:

$ git clone https://github.com/hugsy/ctfhub
$ cd ctfhub
$ cp .env.example .env
### CHANGE THE CREDENTIALS IN .env ###
$ nano .env
### BUILD EXCALIDRAW USING .env VARIABLES ###
$ make build
$ docker compose up -d --build

If you want to use SSL locally, follow the instructions to generate local SSL certificates and run:

$ cp scripts/proxy/.env.nginx-proxy.example scripts/proxy/.env
$ nano scripts/proxy/.env
### Edit the file to your need
$ docker compose -f scripts/proxy/docker-compose.yml -f ./docker-compose.yml up -d --build

If you're migrating from the first versions called ctpad, check out see PR #83 to migrate the data to the new environment, search the Setup > Migration part.
