Installig

Install Visual Studio - include the .NET Framework and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) library. Download the MeetingInfoDatabase NuGet package from MeetingInfoDatabase project (NuGet package is located in "packed" folder):

https://github.com/SanjinKurelic/MeetingInfoDatabase

From the same repository, download file Database.sql. Install SQL Server and create "sa" user with the following values:

database username: sa<br> database password: SQL

Note: It is discouraged to use "sa" account for application-database connection, so it is preferable to create the new user for this project. If you create different user, you need to change connection strings in the project configuration file:

MeetingInfoWPF > MeetingInfoWPF > App.config

Run Database.sql script and create required database tables on SQL Server.

Open Visual Studio and clone this repository to your computer. Open NuGet shell and install the MeetingInfoDatabase package by using the following command:

Install-Package MeetingInfoDatabase -Source <path_to_package>

Before running the project install fonts located in "fonts" directory.

Running

When you run the project, you should be presented with the following screen.

The main screen shows all the meetings for a current week. By selecting year, month and week in the upper left corner, the user can view his or her meetings for a given week. By right clicking on the meeting, the user can edit or remove selected meeting. If the user double clicks the meeting, he or she will be presented with a window with more information about the meeting.

In the upper right corner of the main screen there are three buttons: "new meeting" button, "print" button and "change language" button. By clicking on the "new meeting" button, dialog box will open and ask the user information about the meeting: date, time, title, description, place and the meeting client. The program offers list of available clients who are stored in the database. All fields are required and the user can't have 2 meetings on the same day.

Middle button on the upper right corner is the "print" button, which allow the user to print the meetings of a current week (as shown on below image).

There are 2 available languages for this project: English and Croatian. The user can change language by clicking the "change language" button (the globe icon).
