What is Schedru?
Schedru started as a dorm room project by a junior at Rutgers University studying Computer Science. Trying to register for closed courses every semester was becoming tedious and frustrating, and the current online sniper web apps did not have proper setups to offer both account-based snipes and a good user interface. Schedru was created to solved both of these problems.
Is Schedru free?
Yes. Regular users will be able to snipe Spring and Fall courses on the New Brunswick campus for free. Premium users will be able to snipe all available semesters on all three campuses (New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden). We offer a premium subscription in order to pay for hosting, domain costs, development hours, etc. so that we can keep the main functionality of this app free for everyone to use. The basic functionality of this app will always remain free for everyone (Fall/Spring sniping on NB campus).
What semesters and campuses do you watch?
We are currently supporting these campuses and semesters:
Is Schedru open source?
There are plans in the works to make this app open-source so that developers can help contribute to and build off of Schedru. However, the logistics of turning a private project into an open-source one is generally non-trivial, so it will be some time before any source code is released.
How often does Schedru check for open courses?
It depends on the current number of sections users have selected to watch, but a rough estimate is once every 15-20 seconds. One caveat though: Schedru only checks for openings during hours that WebReg is online (the idea is that you can't register for an opened course if WebReg is offline anyway, so there's no point in getting an email if you cannot register the course). Visit https://sims.rutgers.edu/webreg/ to check if WebReg is online. This website will still be accessible out of those hours so you can manage your Snipes and settings.
How can I check if Schedru is working properly for me?
Find an open section and input it during WebReg hours. See how long it takes for Schedru to email you or text you that it's open. This is your estimate for how fast you'll be notified when an actual section you need opens up.
What do you code in?
Schedru is built on a variety of backend and frontend frameworks. A snapshot of these tools include Python, PostgreSQL, Bootstrap, jQuery, and various APIs for communication services like emailing.
Can I help contribute to this app?
Sure, contact me with your credentials and we can chat from there.
There is a bug or security flaw!
Contact me with details please! I'd greatly appreciate it and I'll keep you in mind when future updates/credits/functionalities are rolled out.
