Show HN: A minimal, ad-free World Cup web-app for fixtures and live scores (wc2026.bisheshtiwaree.com)
7 points by btiwaree 12 days ago
Hi all! With the World Cup around the corner, and being a football fan, I went looking for apps that would give me a detailed overview of groups, matches categorized by group or team, a daily timeline of when games happen that day (especially useful for us in Europe, since some games run pretty late), and a way to follow my favorite team or teams. The problem I ran into was that most apps out there are pretty bloated — like, really bloated. The ones that weren't either didn't focus on the World Cup specifically, or were ridden with betting ads and ads in general. So I built a very minimal ad-free (mostly tailored for myself) World Cup web app for fixtures and live scores. The fixture data comes from the openfootball/worldcup.json project - https://github.com/openfootball/worldcup.json. I hope you find it helpful, would love any feedback.

I built one for myself last week using Claude. Surprised to see both look similar.
Very smooth to use. Any fan could use it to see their teams schedule etc. I hope you do well with it, congratulations!
look simple, and I like it. 1 question: I don't see any feature to get notification on upcoming match or notification for my fav team with their upcoming match? I think it would be very useful
I like when it's simple, thanks for sharing!
