This package is part of FAILS. A web based system developed out of university lectures. Bascially it is a continous pen based notepad editor delivering electronic chalk to several beamers in the lecture hall.
The students can follow the lecture also on their tablets and notebooks and can scroll independently and ask questions to the lecturer using a chat function. Furthermore polls can be conducted.
After the lecture is completed a pdf can be downloaded at anytime.
FAILS components is completely integrated using LTI into LMS such as Moodle.
It is the reincarnation of a system, we are using at our theoretical physics institute for several years. Now initial development is almost complete, and the software is tested in current winter term by few docents.
The system is written with containerization and scalability in mind.
Currently it is advised to not use FAILS in a large productive environment. However, you can use it for small groups of lectures for initial tests. Feedback on error/issues is appreciated via githubs functions.
