[![Runnerspace Banner][banner-url]][deployment-url]

Introducing Runnerspace - a retro, UTSA-themed MySpace clone developed as part of the 'Retro' challenge during
RowdyHacks 2022. This project was completed in under 36 hours and has since been further enhanced to serve as a
portfolio project, now hosted on Railway.

## About

Our team created a MySpace-inspired platform for the UTSA student community during RowdyHacks 2022. Drawing inspiration
from the popular social media services of its era, we developed the application in just under 24 hours and presented a
fully-functional demo for judging at the event.

Despite starting almost 5 hours into the hackathon, we were able to
deliver a polished product that captured the retro essence of MySpace.
