The human minds who planned, coded, and engineered TSW6Ti from the ground up.
Co-created, planned, and engineered TSW6Ti from its initial 24-hour hackathon prototype into a full-scale web platform. Designed and built the end-to-end architecture, backend REST APIs, WebSocket & browser extension bridges, security core, and user dashboard telemetry modules.
Co-created and engineered TSW6Ti alongside Benjamin through the Hackabury 2026 hackathon sprint and ongoing development. Spearheaded core telemetry feature development, testing, API integrations, and collaborative design of the user interface.
Organisations and mentors that inspired the project and sparked its creation.
Special thanks to Dovetail Games for sponsoring Hackabury 2026, awarding TSW6Ti the official Dovetail Track Prize, and providing the Train Sim World 6 HTTP API interface that makes real-time community telemetry possible. Their post-hackathon feedback and suggestions on train physics and cruise control helped shape our roadmap.
Huge gratitude to the Hackabury student society and faculty organisers at Canterbury Christ Church University (CCCU) for hosting Hackabury 2026. The vibrant environment, non-stop support, and endless caffeine fuelled the initial spark that brought this project to life.
The battle-tested open-source libraries that power our front and back ends.
Provides the high-performance HTML5 canvas rendering for real-time speed traces, acceleration graphs, and dynamic telemetry curves.
Powers the silky smooth drag-and-drop dashboard module customisation, allowing drivers to rearrange widgets to their exact preference.
The Python microframework backbone delivering strict parameterised SQLite queries, scrypt password hashing, and secure session management.
Generates automated PDF journey summary reports complete with route details, average speeds, overspeed events, and stats.
Enables safe, sanitised client-side Markdown rendering for in-app connection guides and live README project documentation.
Powers zero-port Cloudflare Tunnels, edge TLS termination, and WAF protection, keeping the public dashboard fast and protected.
Thank you to the virtual railway enthusiasts, route drivers, beta testers, and community members who test this software, report edge cases, and share ideas for new telemetry modules. TSW6Ti is built for you.
