A study portal to manage my studies. Contains notes and references for revisions
This project is a student's study portal where they can track their Notes, Homework Assignments, and Todo lists. They can also research for references in Youtube, Wikipedia, Google Books and measurements. The project applies Django's MVT(Model View Templates) architecture and consumes APIs using django-requests. It has a CRUD (Create Read Update Delete) application written with Function-Based Views (FBV) with focus on core fundamentals which are easy to read, understand and implement.
This project supports Ubuntu Linux 20.04 and Windows OS with their previous stable releases. It has not been tested on Mac OS.
