LDAP Chat
A Chat Client without the hassles of registration
Motivation
Everything today is online. Courses, assignments, so why not discussions? There are avenues like TodaysMeet, but they have an authentication issue wherein lot of spam is generated and actual discussion is deferred.
Idea
So we designed a chat application which meets the requirements of an instructor -- from an instructor's perspective.
Special Features
- LDAP Authentication (CSE)
- Instructor Message broadcasting
- Discussion Trees
Technologies Used
- Django (Python)
- Tornado (for chat)
- Websockets
- PostgreSQL
- And lots of HTML and CSS
A picture is worth a thousand words!
