Hello,
A thought that occurred to me whilst reading your email and poking about in the repo was
whether it would be worth moving to a more "all-inclusive" framework like
django. It takes care of the user management and has an admin interface for you (and any
other admins). Everything else would still need to be done of course...

I wonder if it would be difficult - or possible at all - to spin up a
"clone" of HackHub from the github repo provided, and then use
Django's DB introspection tools to create the models? That might get a
prototype running pretty quickly.
I feel like converting all that to "modern" Python 3 when none of it
really has tests (and you'd have to get a Python 2 test framework
running again to make those) is going to be fraught with difficulty.
