Online School Troubleshooting by Ryan Coil

Inspiration

Talking with my friends a few weeks ago, I remembered how annoyed they had gotten when trying to troubleshoot issues with canvas and google meet, and how they had trouble finding the resources they needed.

What it does

It gives the end-user advice on things to try that might fix common issues and gives the user resources to find solutions to more in-depth issues or ask for help on canvas's or google meet's forum.

How I built it

I built it in python, using a bit of web scraping and a lot of Tkinter. While the structure could be better, given the amount of time I had, I'm proud of what I put together.

Challenges I ran into

Of the many challenges, the hardest one was the issue of having multiple pages inside of one window. Then of course having to learn how Tkinter's grid worked at the same time was not fun.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I'm proud of what I've thrown together based on the time. While there could always be improvements made with more time, with the amount of time I had I threw together a functioning product.

What I learned

I learned a bit more about Tkinter than I thought I would ever know, and it makes me want to use it more in my free time. Also, the use of web scraping was a newer concept to me, I had heard of it and knew what it was, but had never done it myself.
