• Every student is responsible for their reports. No developer will take any blame if your reports do not fulfill the requirements of your school or institute.
• If you wish to change something or wish for a feature, please create a new issue here.
• On every pull your files could be changed. So if you want to work with the newest build please backup your data/config folder and reports.json since school reports currently does not offer automatic backups.

Information & Tips

• If there are any characters which are not displayed correctly it could be due to incorrect backend handling. You can try to add backslashes before it.
  • '&' -> '\\&'
  • You need two backslashes because of the way the software works behind the scenes.
• Any entries starting the line with '$s' (you can replace 's' with x 'config_shortcut_x' which can be defined in the config.)
• Using '::' will replace theese caharacters with ' - ' and make the text before it bold.
• To use color you can use the following notation
  • <color:red>Text<color:end>
