Overview

NUStudy, an NUS CS2113 team project (tP), by team W14-2 during AY2025/26 Semester 1, is a desktop app for managing study hours, optimised for use via a command-line interface (CLI). If you can type fast, NUStudy can get your study management tasks done faster than traditional GUI apps.

NUStudy is written in Java 17 LTS, and uses Gradle 7.6.2 as its build automation tooling, with JUnit 5.10.0 for unit testing.

The documentation below summarises contributions made by me (@yikjin) to the NUStudy project.

Contributions beyond the project team

Here is a list of all forum contributions by me, detailed below:

• Flag Java coding exercise details in Coursemology pointing to old version
• Flag inconsistency in deadlines for Java coding exercise
• Respond to what commit tagging is (#6)
• Report Coursemology’s unexpected use of Java 11 instead of 17 being undocumented (#7)
• Seek clarifications on Java coding standard (#9)
• Help troubleshoot issue of commits not belonging to any branch (#12)

Other contributions

• Update package name from ‘seedu.nustudy’ to ‘arpa.home.nustudy’ (#39)
• Attempt to upgrade Gradle build tooling version from 7.6.2 to 9.1.0 (#39, revert in #52)
  • Gradle upgrade breaks the GitHub Actions CI runner, causing the build step at gradle/actions/wrapper-validation@v3 to only succeed about once every hour or so, due to outdated version v3 used. Revert done instead of updating the ‘.github/workflows/gradle.yml’ file, since this was deemed too risky to do.
