# StartRNR
StartGGElo is a tool for using [start.gg](https://www.start.gg/)'s video game tournament data to
generate and maintain [Elo ratings](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system) for each competitive player.
Once Elo ratings are generated, StartGGElo can be used to generate ranking lists, predict the
probability of a player winning a match, generate seedings for future tournaments, and more.
> **Warning**<br>
> StartRNR is still under development; currently, it only supports generating player ratings.
## Installation
*For more information, see the [installation page](INSTALL.md).*
Build and install StartRNR using `cargo`:
``` sh
cargo install --git https://github.com/kiana-S/StartRNR
```
Alternatively, if you use Nix:
``` sh
nix profile install github:kiana-S/StartRNR
```
## Configuration
StartRNR stores its rating databases in its config directory, which is located at:
- Windows: `%APPDATA%\Roaming\startrnr`
- MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/startrnr`
- Linux: `~/.config/startrnr`
There are few reasons to access this directory directly, but you can if you want to transfer your
datasets between computers.
