# Tiss2Go

Tiss2Go is a ruby on rails gateway server for the TISS (TU Wien Informations-Systeme und Services) application.
It was made for the course _Ruby on Rails Business Programming_ for 2020SS.

It offers an easy and mobile friendly interface for searching through the TISS API.
Searchable are TU related subjects like people, courses, available theses and projects.

To be able to use the Tiss2Go application, one must create a personal user account 
consisting of a username, which is represented by the email and a password.

After logging in, the user is redirected directly on the main search view.
Here, the user can input a search term and check his/her search topic 
with the radio buttons directly below the input field. 
Empty searches are not allowed and therefore blocked!

The search is then computed and provides the user with the results, if it could find something.
Found items can be directly favorited with the "heart"-button or the corresponding
detail view can directly be accessed by "touching"/"clicking" on the entry.

On the detail view the user can also add the subject to the related favorites and if
the subject is favorited, can also save annotations and keywords.

Through the main navigation bar the stored favorites can be accessed easily.
The favorites themselves are also grouped in people, courses, theses and projects.
If favorites are stored, the main subject view presents the stored information
in a table like view. The entries can be sorted either ascending or descending 
by clicking on the corresponding table header.
The entries can also be deleted directly in this view and it is possible to access 
the related details view, too.

If the user wants to print his/her favorites, it can also be done directly by pressing 
the PRINT button in the favorites main menu. A toggle beneath allows for
hiding/displaying the stored annotations.

If wanted the user can also print the detail view with a print button on the detail view.
