mun.track is a Model UN committee dashboard.
If you attended a Model UN conference, your committee chairs will probably use a chalkboard or a Microsoft Word document to manage the general speakers lists, the rolling speakers list, quorum, and speaking time. This is inefficent and gets messy fast.
mun.track is a sleek online dashboard for your Model UN committee that eliminates the pain. mun.track runs in any modern web browser and is designed to be projected in front of your delegates.
mun.track is controlled by typing commands at the prompt at the bottom of the screen. The learning curve is a bit steep, but
- once you learn the keyboard commands, you'll be whizzing around much faster than you could with a mouse
- the command-line is the only interface discreet enough to not disrupt your delegates.
To run a command, simply type its name and press <enter>. Then follow any relevant prompts.

mun.track is designed for you to sit facing your committee with your laptop open and mun.track projected behind you. We recommend you enable the "mirror displays" option to project exactly what appears on your screen so you're aware of what your delegates can see.
