Kudos on the ideation of this tool. This has the potential to be very helpful.

Graph not Updated image

Find above the screenshot of my current graph on this app, which only contains my original rating when I joined the platform.

I have participated in 2 virtual contests since then and my graph has not been updated.

Blank Pages Also, when I load the "/contests" page most times it shows a few elements on the screen then goes blank.

This has happened to me both on Firefox and Chrome.

Because there is no loading icon, one cant tell if the page is loading or what is really happening.

I'd be happy if you can advise on these.

I added my profile last year and apparently, the codeforces API to get contests for usernames is not backward compatible. i.e handle changes for the new year means API calls must be done with the new username. After setting up a profile with my new username and participating in a virtual contest, my virtual rating was updated. This discovery renders the major part of this issue useless. I'd be closing this issue and perhaps suggesting the UX improvement for the blank screens in another issue. Thanks.
