BOUN Course Planner is a course schedule planning tool for Boğaziçi University created by Baran Kılıç. It features course search and includes Lab & PS hours. It stands out from OBIKAS as it looks prettier and supports .ics exports of your weekly course schedule. It also works better at showing conflicts. It currently declares an MIT license.
BUMail Students First is a browser extension that enables users of BUMail to pick the student option automatically instead of the default “personnel” option. It is created by Özgür Deniz Akdemir. It’s a nice quality of life extension that saves you a few clicks.
Boun.app was designed to be a central hub for all information a BOUN student would need in a day at school. It’s a website and an Android app. It has the (still functional) school food court menus displayed in the center of the homepage. Underneath that, there are currently non functional SineBU (The movie theatre at the North Campus) and Çatı Restoran of New Hall (Now called Zemin Restaurant because they moved from the top floor to the entry floor) segments. On the top right corner there are (currently non functional) shortcuts to commonly used public transport vehicles at BOUN. On the top left corner there are functional shortcuts to OBIKAS, Moodle, Academic calendar, BUDDY (The Facebook group of students of BOUN), and the Telegram Bot of Boun.app. While not having a license declared, it’s source code can be viewed by anyone on the internet.
