Inspiration

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, classes have been forced to go online. One of the worst side effects that came with COVID was not being able to connect with people face-to-face. Therefore, we created a Discord Bot to help facilitate improved communication between students and instructors.

What it does

CourseBot is hosted on Discord which creates a bridge for communication between students and instructors. It notifies students of the most updated Course information and allows easy access to other important messages that might be hard to find in the syllabus.

How we built it

Node.js, Discord.js, and Javascript

Challenges we ran into

Database challenges Syntax rules

Accomplishments that we're proud of

nwHacks is the first hackathon that we went to Proud that we made a finished product

What we learned

Javascript

What's next for CourseBot

Hopefully, it gets refined and gets used by a UBC class discord server in the future!
