This app is an online implementation of the manual faculty profiling and evaluation process done by most local state universities in the Philippines.
Basically, think of it as a semi-HR application catered to faculty members. The features are:
-
Profiling and CRUD capabilities of faculty members, plus managing their leaves and career paths.
-
Performance evaluation through a web-based form questionnaire that can be answered by the colleagues and students of the faculty member.
-
Determining the next rank of the faculty member based on his or her evaluation score — either he or she is promoted to the next rank or remain in current.
Originally, this app started as a project proposal of my friend who works in a local state university near my hometown Iloilo City. I volunteered in kind to develop it so that I can practice and apply my Ruby and Ruby on Rails skills in real world scenarios.
I shared it publicly here in GitHub for a number of reasons:
-
To let prospective employers see it as my code portfolio
(I'm currently looking for work opportunities as a web developer, preferably using Ruby/Rails) -
To let other programmers see it and maybe gain feedback in return
-
To look back someday on how far I've improved my skills (comparing how I code in the past versus how I code in the present)
-
Proof that I started coding in Rails even if my code is still crappy and requires improvement (proud of it!)
Using and browsing this app requires authentication. Since this is being used currently (Jul 2017), I only want to give access to prospective employers so that they can look and browse around the app.
Visit the app here here.
I'll continue to update and refactor this application as I continue to get better at my craft. Maybe I can create another repository of a better version of this. There's a lot of work to revise here.
