Plutus started during my final year in college, when my good friend Jan Pecquet and I teamed up to work on a prototype for an Android app that would allow us and fellow students at UCLL to check up on expenses made with our student card. It started as a school assignment, but we decided to continue development and started working on a full and beautiful app that in the long run could replace the student card entirely: we had plans to allow payments over NFC, use NFC for identification to grant access to class rooms and open parking barrels, start on an iOS equivalent, ...
We made fantastic progress, thanks to our great friend and at least equally great developer David Op de Beeck who joined us. However, since all three of us graduated, had to turn in our student cards and lost access to most of UCLL's IT infrastructure, are full time professional developers nowadays, ... it became challenging to find the time to work on Plutus. Commits stopped and the project was no longer maintained, while technology keeps advancing. And that's why I decided to archive this project. We had a good run, we've learnt a lot, and we're still great friends.
Thank you, Plutus, and thanks Jan and David for your contributions!

This is Plutus' heart. A more argumented README will be available soon. Our priorities right now are writing awesome code.
