Dlool

A digital and collaborative homework book

THE API AND ALSO THIS FRONTEND WAS FULLY REBUILD.

Dlool is a digital and collaborative homework book.
Classical homework books have a lot of problems. These are some of them and how Dlool solves them.

Problem Solution
Some students work only digitally but still use a classical, analog homework book Dlool is digital and a highly optimized drop in replacement.
Everyone in a class writes down the same Dlool is collaborative, all entries from one class are available for everyone
They are not very good for the environment, as it will be thrown away after just one year Dlool is digital, no paper is needed.
They are not very practical Dlool is available on all devices.
Entries are not very structured Dlool has a structured entry system.
When you lose your homework book, all your data is lost forever Dlool is digital, you can't lose it.
Every year you need a new homework book Dlool can be used for multiple years.
You are locked into a specific brand Dlool is free and open source. With Dlool you can export your data to ical or todo.txt. Also there is a way to sync Dlool with Apple Reminders.
Homework, tests and notes are not separate Dlool has a different system for homework, tests and notes. Everything is separated but still in one place and easy to find.

Backend

Dlool's backend is powered by the following technologies:


Getting started

The easiest way to try Dlool is to visit the official deployment.

If you want to run it locally e.g. for development you can follow the instructions below.

Homework will be publicly visible for everyone, this isn't a bug but to prevent bullying. But if you want to create, update or delete homework you will need an account for a specific class. You can create one here. It may happen that somebody from your class is already using Dlool, then they will need to accept your request to sign up for the class. This can be done by going to this page and clicking on the accept button.

Once you have your account you can login here and create a homework here. You can also export your homework as ical here.

When you have any questions, find a bug or have an idea for a feature you can create an issue.
