Welcome to the Ypovoli project wiki!

About Ypovoli

Ypovoli is a software project initiated within the scope of the "Software Engineering Lab 2" course offered by the Computer Science program at Ghent University. Our primary objective is to develop a cohesive and user-friendly submission platform tailored to the needs of students and faculties across all programs at Ghent University.

The overarching goal of Ypovoli is to streamline the process of task and project submission, eliminating the need for students and faculty to navigate multiple platforms such as Ufora, Dodona, and Plato. While each of these platforms has its strengths and weaknesses, Ypovoli aims to combine the best features of each, offering a comprehensive solution that enhances efficiency and user experience.

Key objectives

  • Provide a centralized submission platform accessible to all students and faculty members at Ghent University.
  • Simplify the submission process for tasks and projects across various programs.
  • Incorporate the most advantageous features from existing platforms such as Ufora and Dodona to offer a superior user experience.
  • Enhance communication and collaboration between students and instructors.
  • Ensure compatibility and seamless integration with existing university systems and workflows.
