🏗️ Software Architecture

The project follows a modular MVC-like (Model-View-Controller) structure using pure Java.

Package	Description
gui	Contains LMSGui (Main Window) and UI (Swing components wrapper). Handles all user interactions.
data	Contains UserDataManager and DataManager. Manages file I/O and CSV parsing.
users	Contains the User abstract class and its subclasses Admin and Student.
core	Contains POJO classes: Course, Assignment, and Notice.
app	Contains the App entry point.

OOP Principles Implemented:

• Encapsulation: Private fields with strict getters/setters.
• Inheritance: Student and Admin extend the base User class.
• Polymorphism: Dynamic dashboard updates based on instanceof User.
• Abstraction: Abstract User class enforcing specific behaviors.
