uo.zone is a web app that allows you to look up past grades for courses at the University of Ottawa.
The frontend is written in typescript using nextjs, shadcn ui, and tailwind css.
The backend is written in php using laravel, sqlite, and meilisearch.
Python and scrapy were used to scrape information from the University of Ottawa's website and ratemyprofessors.
The idea for UO Grades was inspired by Gopher Grades a similar website for the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. The design and initial frontend for UO Grades was based off of the Gopher Grades Github.
