So the UCP will have a discussion board. Wouldnt it be better to integrate a full functional open source discussion board into the project instead of building it from scratch? something like https://www.discourse.org ?
by the way, how do we submit a new project proposal, something which is not on your ideas list?
Also, you may want to post your idea to the group and discuss it with other mentors before submitting your proposal for it.
I have some suggestions which you could look upon, that would add more to the project
- Apart from the details already mentioned in the idea, we could also add small details like what programs does the university offers etc.
- We can create an alumni network where current students can interact with alumni (we can extend the discussions forum).
- A manager of some sort for students - where the manager could display placement records, or company details (like their application deadlines, general information) etc. which can be easily managed by the universities.
Thanks for the feedback. I have understood the whole work flow and have prepared the wireframes. I have attached the wireframes. I have prepared the wireframes using pen and paper for now, I hope that doesn’t raise an issue. Also, I had some time so I prepared a sample layout for the wireframes.

Please have a look at the flows and wireframes and let me know if I need to add/improve something or if I am going wrong somewhere.
Secondly I wanted to ask if it is necessary to use Bootstrap? Can I use Materialize Css framework instead. As on mobile, the application would look similar to android apps (which most of them are using material design) and would give a good feel of the materialize framework. Have look at the sample that I prepared for the wireframes in Materialize Css framework.

Lastly, I was wondering if I can use SASS for the project? It will help us to write re-usable CSS efficiently and decrease the size of the code. I have also prepared the database schema for the applications so should I upload it here only?
I’ll also be adding the resume manager(a manager to manage students resume and placements), AlumConnect (Lets students/staff connect with the alumni of the university and vice versa ), a complaints section (allows staff/students to book complaints which would be approved by admin before displaying on the complaint page) and the account menu in the next set of wireframes and in the layout as well.
Thanks for your time.

1) Student can start a project2) Student can add members to that project3) Share all the information and tasks about the project. As well as submit a project.
I had a query about, results section in the UCP. Apart from the search that user can search for a particular file, should we make another section, "let's call it advance search" where we take 2 inputs, name and roll number, and accordingly display their 'specific' result ?
I have made the recruitment drive where a user can apply for a particular recruitment drive, so should we make another model for a particular company, which can start multiple recruitment drives?
