Project: Addendum for Teaching Assistants (ATAS)

ATAS is a desktop application designed to be a handy in-class companion for CS1010S Teaching Assistants. It aims to elevate users’ efficiency and make their experience of handling administrative tasks as seamless as possible. The user interacts with it using a CLI, and it has a GUI created with JavaFX. It is written in Java.

This project is based on the AddressBook-Level3 (AB3) project created by the SE-EDU initiative. AB3 has about 10 kLoC, while ATAS has about 20 kLoC modified/added on top.

Given below are my contributions to the project.
