The website is to help students seeking admission in NIT Hamirpur, to find there way through procedures and requirements.
The proposed features of website in order of high to low priorities are:
- To do list : cookie based
- Document order list(Nested in todo list)
- All important forms and links
- An embeded map to show locations
- FAQ section
The features listed below are good to have and should not be our primary concern:
- A splash screen cookie based (onetime only) to promote ISTE.
- ISTE's main site (abouts and history)
To ease the development and maintainence following technologies will be used:

Due to bug inducing workflow experienced in the past. The workflow adopted seems to be conservative but is necessary.
There are two branches of the project master and gh-pages. master is the main development branch where all the latest code exists. gh-pages branch is marked to be hosted by github and only thoroughly tested builds should be commited here.
