Ent Notifier ()
ENTNotifier watches the student portal and alerts you the moment a new grade lands, by email or SMS depending on your preferences. Around 15% of my cohort had an account.
The origin: the student portal at Université Sorbonne Paris Nord was down. I asked the teachers for access to their grades server, which was still up, and built on top of it. Made during the DUT. The pieces • Python: scraping the grades API and a comparison algorithm to detect what changed • Node.js / Express: the API: login, accounts, notifications • SQL database • jQuery on the front end (yes...) The Android app Built from scratch, with one precise goal: send the SMS cheaply, using a Free SIM card on a €2/month plan. Each SMS then cost almost nothing, instead of going through a paid API. Adoption Around 15% of my cohort had an account.
