No Longer Maintained

Just use Google Calendar... Jokes aside, I was blessed to mentor and work with all the amazing RCOS contributors to LATE over the years. I appreciate you all and I hope you had a good time and learned a thing or two in the end, as I certainly did. In retrospect, working with everyone was easily the most fulfilling part of this project. However, now that I'm closing out my academic career soon I can't justify further investing time and effort into anything related to coursework! I'll keep this repository as a testament to all the work that was done and hopefully inspire future student developers :)

Overview

LATE is a web app that tracks your coursework and keeps you on track with reminders and reports.

Goals

• To provide the user with a clear list of all upcoming assignments and tests.
• To allow users to schedule time in their schedule to study/work.
• To remind users to follow the allocated study/work times through means including notifications, text messages, etc.

Target Audience The target audience is all RPI students, especially freshmen.

Local Setup

Make sure you have NodeJS installed with version >= 14.0.0.

• Clone the repository
• Checkout the dev branch with $ git checkout dev
• $ npm install -g @vue/cli
• $ npm install
• Create a .env file based on .env.example in the root folder with the proper configuration environment variables TEAM MEMBERS: Ask Frank for the official .env file

To run the project in development mode, you must run the API server in one terminal and the front end hot-reloading server in another terminal:

• $ sudo npm run fix-watch (Linux users only, may be required if Vue-cli complains about file watchers)
• $ npm run frontend to run the hot-reloading Vue server (in one terminal)
• $ npm run backend to run the API server (in another terminal)
• Go to url http://localhost:8080 (whatever $ npm run frontend tells you go to) in your browser

Development

The GitHub repo wiki contains custom resources on the whole stack LATE uses and how to develop the site.
