Outcome
In summary, iServ Logger emerged as an innovative browser automation tool during the 2020 quarantine, created to address the challenges of online schooling. This tool, developed out of a mix of boredom and ingenuity, allowed users to automatically join and leave video conferences, ensuring they never missed a class even while catching up on sleep. Although initially envisioned to include AI-driven interactive features, iServ Logger remained a simpler, yet effective tool due to the project's fun and experimental nature. You can explore and contribute to iServ Logger on GitHub at iServ Logger on GitHub.
In the midst of the 2020 quarantine, a period marked by online schooling and a drastic shift in our daily routines, I found myself grappling with a common challenge: the risk of oversleeping and missing online classes. This situation, coupled with a blend of boredom and a spark of creativity, led to the birth of iServ Logger, a browser automation tool ingeniously designed to attend virtual classes on my behalf.
The Genesis of iServ Logger
Quarantine brought many of us to the brink of monotony, but for me, it was an opportunity to channel my ingenuity. iServ Logger was conceived out of the need to manage my online school attendance more efficiently. The tool, written in C# and utilizing the Selenium package for browser automation, was my solution to a very relatable problem.
Functionality and Features
iServ Logger's primary function was to automatically join video conferences, allowing me to catch a few extra minutes of sleep without the worry of missing a class. The tool was designed to be user-friendly and customizable. Users could set it up to join classes at a specified time, leave when the session ended, and even send custom text messages. This level of automation was a significant relief during a time when online fatigue was becoming a real issue for many students.
Open Source Contribution
Understanding the potential and utility of iServ Logger, I decided to make it an open-source project, allowing others to use, modify, and improve it. The code, available on GitHub (iServ Logger on GitHub), stands as a testament to my early days in the coding world. While I acknowledge that the code might not be perfect, reflecting my nascent stage in coding, it worked effectively, serving its purpose admirably.
iServ Logger, born out of quarantine boredom, exemplifies how necessity and creativity can lead to innovation. This tool was not only a personal project to address my immediate needs but also became a resource for others facing similar challenges in the new normal of online education. It stands as a symbol of my early coding days, a reminder of where I started, and a beacon of what can be achieved with a bit of creativity and a lot of coding.
