This client-side tool is meant to interact with the BotWars Server [https://github.com/WebAndCodingClub-IITGuwahati/BotWars-Server]. This provides an interface to submit files corresponding to particular problems, view score gained by all entries and to check the leaderboard.
BotWars is the name given to the programming competition format that aims at bringing participants together to try and create code that outperforms others' code. Unlike algorithmic challenges, these competitions don't have a fixed output or a fixed score. The better the solution produced by your code, the higher you can score and, consequently, move up the leaderboard.
This utility is written in Python and requires the user to have a Python interpreter installed on his computer.
