Functional specification
Login screen
Here the user can login by specifying their username. There are no passwords for this system.
Event list screen
Here all events in the system are listed.
Event creation screen
Here a user can create an event by specifying an event name, earliest date and latest date.
Event screen
Here the current availability of everyone in the system is reported and candidate dates are reported.
Availability screen
Here a user can nominate their availability.
- Y: Yes, available
- N: No, not available
- M: Maybe available
By default if a user has not made a specific nomination for a date then it is considered a 'maybe'.
When users save their preferences they get written to a file. If the user returns to the screen the saved file is reloaded into their browser.
Technical specification
System implemented in PHP with a file-system based backend.
