Projects to improve Roundup - CS682 capstone projects

Hello all:

I'm happy to share the news that the capstone project class in
graduate software engineering at the University of Massachusetts at
Boston has chosen two Roundup projects. The student teams chose:

Roundup Classhelper Enhancement

  https://www.cs.umb.edu/~rouilj/CS682/spring2024/classhelper_enhancement.html

  The current classhelper has several issues. This project
  encapsulates the existing classhelper link within a new
  web-component. The new web component will replace the current
  frames-based classhelper. It will gracefully revert to the old
  classhelper if web components are not supported. Additionally, it
  will address various bugs and utilize the REST interface for
  searching and populating selection lists. Furthermore, it will serve
  as the foundation for enhanced helper capabilities in the future.

Creating Chart from Index Table

  https://www.cs.umb.edu/~rouilj/CS682/spring2024/charts_from_index_search.html

  Building on the concepts in
  https://wiki.roundup-tracker.org/QueryResultPieCharts, this project
  aims to enhance the integration of simple charting with Python3. In
  addition to integrating the existing proof of concept, this project
  intends to support multiple groupings and potentially other chart
  types, depending on feasibility. For more complex charting and
  analysis needs, it is still recommended to download index data via
  CSV or access the backend database.

I hope everybody has a great week.
