v0.1.0-alpha Release Notes ⭐️

This release introduces two scripts that streamline the process of generating and scheduling course offerings for a given term.📚

scraper.py🕷️

The scraper.py script is a utility tool designed to gather course information from the CSUS webpage and generate a comprehensive JSON file containing the schedule for a selected term. This file serves as the foundation for the scheduling process, providing a structured representation of the available courses, their respective sections, and associated details.

Key Features:

• Data Scraping: The script employs web scraping to collect course data from official university website, ensuring up-to-date and accurate information.🌐
• JSON Generation: The collected data is organized and serialized into a JSON file, making it easy to parse and consume by other applications.📄
• Error Handling: Robust error handling mechanisms are in place to gracefully handle exceptions and ensure reliable operation.🛡️

scheduler.py🧠

The scheduler.py script uses OpenAI's GPT-3.5 language model to generate non-overlapping course schedules based on user-provided requirements. By combining the schedule data obtained from scraper.py and the user's input, this script generates optimized timetables that accommodate all specified courses without conflicts.

Key Features:

• User Input: Users can input a list of course requirements separated by commas, allowing for customized schedule generation.📝
• Schedule Generation: The script utilizes the GPT-3.5 language model to intelligently analyze the course data and generate a non-overlapping schedule that satisfies the provided requirements.🤖
• Rich Output: The generated schedule is presented in a well-formatted and easy-to-read manner, thanks to the integration of the Rich library for markdown rendering.📄
• Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling ensures graceful fallback mechanisms in case of invalid inputs or missing data.🛡️

With this release, users can streamline the process of course scheduling, saving valuable time and effort. Get started by cloning the repository and exploring the provided documentation for detailed usage instructions and configuration options.📖
