I built an open-source, offline-first timetable and assignment manager for students (UniTask)

Description and use

UniTask is an open-source, offline-first app that manages university timetables, assignments, to-dos, and study groups with alerts and backups.

Problem

Students need a personal manager for university tasks, timetables, and study groups that works offline and provides reminders.

Outcome

UniTask provides an integrated, offline-first solution for managing university schedules, assignments, and study groups, with open-source code available for community use.

Workflow

• 1. Define data models for classes, assignments, to-dos, and study groups.
• 2. Implement offline-first storage using JSON backups.
• 3. Add lecture start alerts and assignment deadline persistent alarms.
• 4. Create a simple code system for sharing tasks with classmates.
• 5. Open-source the project on GitHub for community feedback.

Evidence

I felt the need for a personal university task(assignments, quizes, etc) manager app so I used Google AI Studio and Claude to vibe code one.

It handles daily class timetables (with lecture start alerts), assignment deadlines with persistent alarms, personal recurring to-dos, and offline JSON backups.

You can also join study groups using a simple code to share tasks with classmates.
