I have decided to aggregate the feature requests people have given me in this issue and go through them one by one. They are up for grabs for anyone who is willing to help.

[ ] Grading scheme for courses Proposed by @AlexiosFan in #179.
[ ] Course reviews and Q&A Proposed by Unknown in Telegram.
[ ] Mapping from department to school course codes Proposed by me in the shower.

The issue with the grading scheme is that it is not part of the grade report chart API (from what I know, since I am no longer a student), thus it can't be easily extracted to be added as a field in all of the courses. Moreover, it won't be possible to add it to the existing courses retroactively. As an alternative, this information can be written in the description like here, but only the description of the most recent exam is shown. Another alternative, the grading scheme can be shown in the reviews dialogue like here, result.

2024.02.23: Course reviews are doable and are in progress. The main source of information of mine for now is the program-wide Telegram chat. I have exported it, resulting in ~130 pages of messages in HTML form. Out of those, I have manually gone through ~3 pages and added relevant info to the website.

For the mapping between old and new codes, this feature would require adding an additional dataset of equal courses and some updated code to merge the views for these courses on the pages for lists of courses, modules and schools.
