UTARI: Unified Teaching Assistant Reply Interface

Introduction

UTARI is an email-based support system for students to ask questions to teaching assistants.

Architecture

UTARI is modularized and serverless.

Middleware and Hook

There are two types of UTARI components: middleware and hook.

• Middleware is a part of the pipeline, which means that it will be executed and modified the data.
• Hook is triggered by an event, and it can be used to send notifications or do other things.

You can see the flowchart to understand the middleware and hook.
