CRISIS: Correcting Rensselaer's Insufferable SIS

This site is deployed at rpicrisis.org

CRISIS is an open source RCOS project: a website that houses various course and major related tools for my college, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, since we believe that the offered tools are insufficient.
From the highest priority to lowest this would include:
Course descriptions, prerequisites, cross-listings, transfer options by course, the course time/location/professor that semester, major/dual major curriculum by year, a HASS pathways planner, and possibly even a course scheduler if one of the RCOS scheduler projects wishes to collaborate.

Stacks: HTML, CSS, TypeScript, Static React

Contributors

Lead: Trevor Brunette
Co-Lead: Colin Melville

Pull Requests

After you have cloned the repository, you will have your own version of it on your system to modify. You will use a branch for your (team's) development and commits, and submit pull requests to send your cumulative additions from commits for review and then to eventually be merged into the main. Pull requests should be relatively infrequent in general, but since the project is so new, there may be quite a few this semester.

Fetch before committing and pull from main before PRing

Your commits should be on your (group's) development branch.

Never force push.
