Dlool is a digital and collaborative homework book. Classical homework books have a lot of problems. These are some of them and how Dlool solves them.
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Some students work only digitally but still use a classical, analog homework book | Dlool is digital and a highly optimized drop in replacement. |
| Everyone in a class writes down the same | Dlool is collaborative, all entries from one class are available for everyone |
| They are not very good for the environment, as it will be thrown away after just one year | Dlool is digital, no paper is needed. |
| They are not very practical | Dlool is available on all devices. |
| Entries are not very structured | Dlool has a structured entry system. |
| When you lose your homework book, all your data is lost forever | Dlool is digital, you can't lose it. |
| Every year you need a new homework book | Dlool can be used for multiple years. |
| You are locked into a specific brand | Dlool is free and open source. With Dlool you can export your data to ical or todo.txt. Also there is a way to sync Dlool with Apple Reminders. |
| Homework, tests and notes are not separate | Dlool has a different system for homework, tests and notes. Everything is separated but still in one place and easy to find. |
This is the second Version of the backend. Here is a brief roadmap until it will be integrated into the Frontend:
- A SDK for TypeScript
- Migrating the Frontend from the old to the new API
- Migrating the data from MongoDB to EdgeDB
The new API is build with Elysia JS and EdgeDB.
- Install the dependencies
bun install
- Initialize the EdgeDB
edgedb project init
- Create the query builder for EdgeDB
bun edgedb
- Run the server
bun run start
At this point the server will run on localhost port 3000
