From the outdated 0.1 alpha version, no longer mantained and usable, I have rewritten from scratch the app. Here are the new things added, in addition to the main workflow and features of 0.1.
Changelog
â New
- New UI: Now a graphic style is offered more similar to that used by Google, thanks to MDC, called Material Design Refresh or Material Design 2
- Three new types of list generation:
- “Manualâ€Â: Lists are created by hand by the classroom administrator;
- ‘Automatic’: lists are created automatically (typical random draw);
- ‘Automatic from start date’: lists are created automatically but useful days for the query are already established (automatically)
- Ability to print PDF lists individually or multiplefrom the reference class
- Integration with Maicol07 Account (SSO): You can now use your Maicol07 Network account to sign in (your old Account on Scheduled Exams was automatically migrated. For privacy reasons, you must reset your password the first time you sign in)
- Documentation! Available at https://docs.maicol07.it/docs/en/scheduled_exams/introduction
