This is based on Prateek's idea. Its such a chore to go to the hostel website everyday to check if any postal letters have come (heck, I haven't check mine even once till now). So, we have developed a widget that takes the days letters list and brings it right on your dashboard.
This is my first attempt at creating widgets and the product is in alpha. There are still a few bugs remaining (none which would crash the widget fortunately).
Features:
- Provides a calendar (on the back) to check letters list of any day.
- Ensures that the names are in proper case most of the time even if they are entered in wrong case (which seems to be the case most of the time).
Bugs:
- Size is still a little big.
- 31 of all months is displayed as 30th of that month. Will debug the javascript date functions soon but no energy right now
- Changing the month without choosing a date ruins the date display in the front. This can be changed by going back and choosing another date
- Sometime prev button does not fetch the data. Use the calendar in that case
Thanks to Prateek for the idea and for bearing with me for a whole session.
