01Problem
Hall administration ran across separate registers and spreadsheets: hostel change requests, mass allotment each term, complaints, fees and discipline cases had no single record and no trail of who changed what.
02Approach
We modelled each role first (students, wardens, administrators, workers) and gave every portal only the actions that role owns. Allocation rules were written as an explicit algorithm so the outcome of a hostel change term can be explained.
03Solution
One web platform with portals per role, a hostel change allocation engine, Excel-based mass allotment, a complaint state machine, fee management, HDC case handling, announcements, notifications and an audit log.
04Technology
Next.js / TypeScript / PostgreSQL / Prisma / Auth.js / Tailwind CSS / Docker
05Deliverables
- — Student, warden, admin and worker portals
- — Allocation and mass-allotment engine
- — Excel import/export and PDF reports
- — Containerised deployment
06Outcomes
- — In live use at NIT Rourkela, with more than 7,500 users across the student, warden, administrator and worker portals.
- — Hostel changes, allotment, complaints, fees and discipline cases now run through one system, with every action on record.
