Boop — school check-inWorking on school in VS Code?
● reminders running45 min commit / break
CampusBoop is not made, endorsed, supported or distributed by Hogeschool van Amsterdam (HvA) or Universiteit van Amsterdam (UvA). School names are used only to explain which study workflow the tool is designed around.
01 // WHAT IT DOES
Less “did I forget something?”
CampusBoop does not replace the school system. It helps you remember the steps around it.
Commit + push Boops
While you work in VS Code, Boop can remind you to protect your work with regular commits and pushes.
Break reminders
Take a ten-minute quiet period, resume early, or keep working. You control the pace.
Daily checkout
When you finish, mark yourself checked out locally and stop the reminders for the day.
Your schedule
Limit automatic reminders to selected weekdays and hours so Boop stays silent outside school time.
Start with your PC
Windows and Linux can both launch CampusBoop automatically when you sign in.
Important: CampusBoop opens the school pages, but it does not submit HvA/UvA check-in or checkout forms automatically. You still review and submit the actual school action yourself.

After installation.
The installers also print a short version of these instructions and a clickable link back here when supported by the terminal.
First start
Open CampusBoop from the Start Menu, CampusBoop.exe, or a new terminal with campusboop. Choose whether the helper may stay in the background and whether it should start when you sign in.
First start
Run campusboop. CampusBoop starts a local-only interface and opens it in your normal browser. Use campusboop --autostart-on to start it automatically when you sign in.
School links
Open Settings and enter your HTTPS school login and check-in links. You can give Check-in 1 and Check-in 2 different names and URLs.
Daily workflow
Use “Already checked in today” after you have completed the real school check-in. Use “Checked out for today” when you are finished to stop reminders until the next day.
Removing CampusBoop
campusboop --uninstall removes the installed app but keeps your local settings. campusboop --purge removes the app and CampusBoop’s saved local settings.
VS Code detection
On X11, CampusBoop can use xdotool when available to check whether VS Code is foreground. On Wayland or without it, the fallback checks whether VS Code is running.
05 // PRIVACY & LOGIN
Your school account stays yours.
Windows
Personal login is optional. The Windows v1.0 app can store its optional saved login using Windows DPAPI for your Windows account and limits autofill to the configured trusted HvA/UvA ADFS login host. MFA/phone verification remains manual.
Linux
The Linux v1.0 build does not store your HvA/UvA password. School authentication opens in your normal browser, so browser/session security remains with your existing browser setup.
No automatic submission
CampusBoop records “checked in” and “checked out” only as local reminder status. It does not claim that action was registered by the school system.
