Why I made this?

I wanted to compare the different courses offered by the university and there didn't exist any solutions.

This is my gift to you, the analytical ones, that will spend their time fretting over choices they have and over analysing everything.

Database Setup

There are two databases for DTU Archive.

The Migrations Database stores the results data. This is where the migrations data from scraping tool at dtu-archive-migrations go. The intended way of interacting with this database is through RAW sql queries since most use cases require complex queries which are a hassle through ORMs. This database is designed to be reproducible through the migrations. No backups required. The frontend should have no need to make any changes to this database.

The other database is called, due to the lack of creative naming sense, the Other Database. This contains all the other stuff that the application needs. This database should be backed up routinely.
