The client is written using Spring and JavaFX. We need someone to finish implementing the UI elements which allow players to join a matchmaker queue as well as invite each other to a party and join a queue together. This will require reading and displaying incoming data from the server. We also need to modify the play tab to hide any matchmaker games from the custom games tab.

The server is written with asyncio. A lot of work has been done, but we will still need help adding features beyond the first release. We will need to extend the matchmaking algorithm to work for 3v3 and higher, allow players to join multiple queues at the same time, add additional "ready" checks after a match is found, migrate existing data into new tables, and more.

It would be great if we had someone to guide the client UI implementation, otherwise we will end up with something clunky and annoying to use. We need an interface which will display:

• The available matchmaker queues
  
  • Name
  • Team size (1v1, 2v2, etc)
  • Time until queue pop
  • Number of players in the queue
  • Whether or not you are currently in the queue
• Your party
  
  • Any pending party invites that you have
  • Who you have invited to your party
  • Who is in your party
  • What factions each player has selected
  • Who has readied up
• The new ratings/leaderboards

You will need to install pre-release versions of the client and connect to our testing sessions. These are organized on the FAF discord server https://discord.gg/hgvj6Af under the #faf-testing channel. Make sure to type
