A web app absence planner for teams
Although R-R has existing systems to manage and view absence, they fail to meet some basic needs.
- Allow any R-R computer user to view any colleagues absence information (with appropriate protection of people's data and compliance to any legistation on privacy)
- Include 3rd party colleagues/contractors as well as regular staff
- globally accessible
This project aims to overcome these deficiencies
This project is just starting, will be a django web app with Javascript/jQuery on the front end, and Bulma.io CSS
Once you have followed the instructions in the Developer Guide for setting up the application, you can simply run the server with uv:
uv run ap_src/manage.py runserverIf you are jumping from setup to this and the system cannot find the uv command, you may have to restart your IDE or device.
To get started with the Absence Planner and the Team App, we have a developer guide.

- Options for modifying colour schemes can be found in the profile settings page, under the "App Information" category. Different colours can be picked for altering Bank Holidays and Weekends. A dropdown list within the same container can be modified to choose whether these specific dates are shown on the calendar. The rectangular bar can be selected to show a colour picker where a specific colour can be chosen, after these changes have been made they can be confirmed by clicking on the "Submit" button to apply them.
