This project is a web-based attendance management system developed using Python and Flask. It allows students to create accounts, log in securely, and mark their attendance for specific units based on a dynamic weekly timetable.
The system automatically displays units depending on the current day, ensuring that students only interact with relevant courses. Attendance records are stored in a database and can be retrieved for viewing by unit.
One of the key features of this project is the handling of timezone differences to ensure that the correct day is used even when the system is deployed online. This makes the system reliable for real-world use.
The application is built following RESTful principles and demonstrates key concepts such as user authentication, session management, database integration, and cloud deployment.
This project was developed as part of a capstone assignment focusing on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and practical web service implementation. https://attendancesystem7712.up.railway.app
