Notification-System is a project which will help faculty to intimidate students about any important information like Schedule Changes, any upcoming seminar and other information. This information will be shared through SMS. Through other platforms like whatsapp, sometimes information got missed due to network gliches or any else reason, due to which we adopted SMS for message sharing. Also, Additional functionality of asking queries has also been added. With this, Students can ask their queries to their respective teachers easily
This is built on django framework along with HTML, CSS and Bootstrap as front-end framework. At some instances, AJAX is also used to provide the touch of asynchronous manner. To handle the message queuing, Django-background-tasks has been used which schedule the messages according to time and date set by Faculty. Nexmo has been used as SMS API service.
