What

The list provided by options menu after selecting class schedule is inconsistent especially in the morning. Today's date should be in the middle of the list and description should mention "TODAY" for current date.

Possible Fix

Maybe the check the datetime.now() implementation.

i tried entering my amizone pwd but it just shows error ples help

it's not clearly stated from where the schedule of next day start

I think all of us are having integral values as username in amizone, so maybe add a line that will break the operation from going any further if the username is having alphanumeric or string as value?

What do you think sir?

And if it could say "Invalid Option", then it would look much better.

Thank you.

it would be helpful if we get to check whether the attendance was updated through bot

The "Courses" option seems to be broken.

What

Being an open source software, there should be an about section in the app which can show the application's creators and it's various contributors. Adding a link to this GitHub repo will also be beneficial and support transparency. Along with that, a deployment guide for self-hosting the bot can also be added.

Possible Solution

Implement feature

• About Option
• Deployment to whatsapp md file

Bun, a faster modern alternative to Node.JS just released its first stable version. Why we want to migrate:

• It's fast.
• Compatible with Node APIs: expected to "just work" by just switching out Node for Bun.
• Has its own, very fast web framework; we can switch from Fastify as a second stage of the migration.
• Can transpile TS to JS on its own (a lot faster than tsc). However the transpilation process does not typecheck (citation needed), so we'll need a separate type-checking workflow.
• Is cool. We want Amibot to be cool and cutting-edge so it's always fun and appealing for new contributors.

Problem

We're storing user credentials in plain-text. This is less than ideal as a database breach would render them exposed.

Solution

Encrypt these credentials while storing, decrypt them while using. A secure symmetric algorithm like AES-256 should suffice.

Reference: #35

Since it shows the present day attendance only, RGB button emojis can be used to show the status of today's attendance. (Like in Amizone)

Need a menu that comes once the "invalid date" message is sent if the user inputs a wrong format of data , as this can lead to the bot being stuck in a loop until a date is given to it.

What

The current message flow has a redundant options message:

Proposed solution

Instead of the first redundant options message, use only the second list option menu in the flow with an added logout option.

The restart message might look awkward to people who don't know what the line means -

I have pin-pointed the line where this output might come from -

If someone could correct it or maybe I could open a PR and correct it, then the restart message would look more meaningful.

Thank you.

The Problem

Buttons are cool and user friendly, but sometimes less than efficient for frequently used flows.

Proposed Solution

Slash commands can be a cool alternative to interact with the bot and condense multiple button clicks into a single command.

Add the feedback form auto submission feature by calling the respective function from Go-amizone SDK

Bot is behaving incorrectly on its own.

If you could send some bot commands with the initial text that'd be helpful!

Create a CONTRIBUTING.md with steps to contribute to the project, including forking, branching, commit message standards and project setup -- MongoDB, Whatsapp/Facebook token, webhook configuration including exposing to web with ngrok or similar.

Create a types-of-contributions.md mentioning various ways in which you can contribute to the project.

Create a CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md with the doc containing key points like Our Standards, Responsibilities, Scope, etc.
Please refer to this link ->Github code of conduct

The Problem

I'd imagine that checking attendance and class schedule for the current and previous day is the most commonly used flow in the bot for most users, as it is for me. However, this flow currently requires at least 4 button clicks and waiting for 2 bot responses. Suboptimal!

Proposed Solution

Add extra buttons just to trigger these flows. Essentially:

What

Selecting the Menu option in the options list gives back a redundant message as a response that doesn't serve any purpose.

Possible Fix

Just remove it from the options menu. We don't really need this option with the recent overhaul of UI.

after sending start, it sends the welcome message and just asks for password(it takes anything) while not asking the username, which then gives the error of 'could not validate credentials, please re-enter' even after entering right password.

Can we have an in-built option to report any issue with the bot or say a feedback option, instead of coming here on github and opening an issue?

Because many people who don't use github might find it tough to report if any issue or bug arises or just in general recommendations to add new features.

Thank you.
