The code in this repo is from the old Hacker101 coursework, deprecated in favor of the Hacker101 CTF. It is split into two parts: one that runs and depends on Google App Engine and one that can be run anywhere you have Python and a MySQL database.
The GAE levels live under the gae directory and should be deployable like any Python application on Google App Engine.
Simply run pip install -r requirements.txt then change db.py to point to your MySQL instance. At that point, you should be able to run python main.py and have a running instance.
There are several secret levels (that is, were never used in Hacker101); figuring out access is left as an exercise to the hacker.
