The Problem
Students at AIUB often missed critical academic notices due to the friction of manually checking the university website. I built this bot to provide a seamless, push-notification experience.
The Solution
I engineered a serverless backend that scrapes the official notice board and broadcasts updates to all subscribers instantly.
Technical Features
- Automated Scraper: Robust regex-based parsing of university HTML.
- Subscriber Management: Integrated with Google Sheets for lightweight, reliable data storage.
- Smart Triggers: Hourly automated checks ensure zero-latency updates for students.
