    • Hi folks! (26.10.2020)

      Welcome to the Web Software Development course!

      As you might have noticed from the MyCourses page, we'll be running the course fully online this fall. This means that there will be no locally organized lectures or exercise groups. We'll be providing some support hours on course Slack though. We'll try to adjust the support based on discussions on Slack and needs that arise, as we are also adjusting to the situation.

      The course page (and the platform) is available at https://wsd.cs.aalto.fi/web-software-development/ -- the page contains information on the generic working practices, grading scheme, course assignments, etc, and you can also return most of the assignments through the page. The platform that we use is a new one that we've recently built, so if you face any bugs or so, please inform us about them on Slack. Note that you have to also register to the platform -- there's a register button in the top right corner of the page.

      The materials for the first course week are now available and the assignments from the first week are due on the 3rd of November. More details on this are found on the course page. Note that, as this is a one-period course, you'll need to reserve time for the assignments -- try to complete them early on. We'll always release new materials on Mondays.

      Welcome aboard!
