betterbanner's Introduction

Eli C Davis

Founder of Recolude, a startup that helps game developers record players in-game to provide insight into how their application is used. Follow the progress on twitter or DM me if you have special usecases. Demo here.
In my free time, I work on a procedural mesh editing and generation library named Polyform. A few utility libraries have spawned from it's undertaking as well that might be useful to others:
- vector - Immutable vector math library
- jbtf - GLTF-inspired JSON schema for embedding arbitrary binaries
- quill - Scheduler of operations on in-memory data
- sfm - Utilities for interacting with reconstruction data from different SFM programs
- iter - Iterator and utilities. Some inspiration from ReactiveX
- bitlib - Utilities for reading and writing binary data

betterbanner's Issues

Map Link/Iframe

It would be nice to have button that would either open the MSU map in a new tab or load it into an iframe.

Kill Banner

Have our extension apply styling and reformat:
https://my.msstate.edu/web/home-community/banner

Allow Users to set a background for the login page

It would be nice if users could set a background image for the MSU login page where they enter their username and password

IFRAME >_<

There's a lot of empty space that can be used to view banner links nicely instead of FILLING UP THE ENTIRE PAGE AS AN IFRAME.

Calendar

Some sort of Calendar from MyCourses, Final Exam Schedule, Fall 2016, etc.

Create 'Office/Employee' tab

Currently, BB's sidebar includes only links for students. It could also include a section/tab for employees with useful links.

Mycourses link

Next to the mail button it's would be nice to have a mycourses button

Filter for Mycourses

Problem

It's hard to find the class I want to add

Potential Solutions

Text Box Filter

Give users a text box to type in the name of the class to filter what buttons are presented to them.
Look here for example.

Filter By Semester

MyCourses Page actually gives what semester the class comes from. Writing a simple function to determine what classes are the most recent ones shouldn't be too hard..?

Potential Problem

You can register for classes that are not in a semester.

Open New Tab

Is it possible to have the class buttons option of opening in new tab?

Capture Browser Back Button

Users instinctively press the back button to go back a page, but this isn't 'forwarded' to the inner iframe.

MyCourses Grade Page

It would be nice to be one click away from viewing your grades.

Banner directive buttons do not fit full text on smaller screens

On smaller screens, the text for the buttons in the Banner directive do not fit. They should wrap the buttons to allow text to fit. This should be easy using the flex class.

Example:

Add link to restaurant hours of operation

It would be nice to have a link to the current restaurant hours on campus somewhere in extension.

Why are you still up

Currently, past 12am. Better Access asks the user why are they still up.

Should totally make it so if you click on it you can write a tweet which hits an external service that will then generate a tweet to an account we set up :3

Then we can see why people are up.

Cute Leaflet Map

If we end up building something that captures a users schedule, then it's no extra work to also map out there schedule in a Leaflet instance.

We could even end up making our own map tiles @hawkins for the campus.
Just thoughts. Have your own little bully walk and such.
