fERP Extension

fERP, stands for Feedback-ERP, is an automation extension that streamlines the process of providing feedback on the IIT Kharagpur ERP system to courses and professors.

- Source Code (Github) : https://github.com/proffapt/fERP
- Mozilla Add-On Store : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ferp/

It offers three feedback types - positive, neutral & neutral - and two convenient modes to suit your preferences:

Cascading Mode (Default):
- Utilize the same feedback type, you chose, across all forms
- Automatically fill and submit the next form after previous form is submitted
- Skip any forms you've already submitted, focusing only on the remaining ones

Selective Mode:
- Customize the feedback type for each individual form
- Fill the captcha and submit the form (auto/manual) at your own pace
- Choose the order in which you want to complete the forms

Other subtle features:
- The extension also has following subtle features, which are more likely to be ignored, but are tightly integrated into the extension with a lot of efforts.
- Fills the captcha, submits the feedback form (in case of cascade mode - repeats, until all forms are submitted)
- Automatically downloads the admit card after all the forms are submitted using cascade mode
- Form can be submitted by pressing Enter key after typing captcha in manual mode
- Re-fills the form with previously given feedback type, if wrong captcha was filled
- Bypass confirmation pop-ups, which appear everytime a form is submitted
- Invoking a feedback type randomises the choice of available options

Simplify the tedious task of providing feedback on ERP just to get your end-sem admit card - with fERP. Its intuitive modes and time-saving features make it an indispensable tool for IIT Kharagpur students.
