During the academic lifespan, almost all students find it difficult to manage and backup the coding assignments conducted during their practical. Although students are instructed to create a folder on the computer and save all their assignments into it; there is no guarantee that the folder will not get deleted from the computer until the students next turn arrives. Also sometimes only partial program is completed in the college and remaining program needs to be done at home which is again a cause of concern. Also teachers cannot access all student coding assignments at one place and hence find it difficult to evaluate the student’s performance. Our system is developed to cater to all this needs. Our system will include an Eclipse plug-in as well as a web site with users having both the options to backup their assignments. Although Github, a product on similar lines already exists, it does not provide specific functionality needed for academia. Our system is specifically developed for colleges to simplify task of students as well as teachers. It can be used as self-contained application for code assignment backup and management.
