The GatorGrader-to-GitHub issue magician!
wizard is a complement for GatorGrader, the automated grading system (AGS) used
and developed by the Allegheny College Department of Computer Science. Where wizard steps in: GatorGrader's outcome of specifications-
based grading checks appears as an issue on a student's repository with checked/unchecked checkboxes representing both achieved
and missed grader checks.
This tool helps surface actionable items for students to complete in the form of an interactive checklist that mimics best practices of using the GitHub platform to surface technical issues with open source software packages/community projects. Beginning acculturation of students to GitHub processes benefits them in internships, future coursework and, eventually, positions as developers -- regardless of version control platform or workflow.
Of course, it helps that GitHub is pretty ubiquitous. That written, this project helps to build a transferrable skill that allows students to be more ready contributors to their education in computer science.

This program requires a high-uptime/availability server to respond to webhook requests from GitHub. We encourage a domain name to resolve to. rather than just an IP address. (Because, of course, that seems like you're trying to steal someone's credit card information.)
wizard requires an organization-level webhook to the URL endpoint of the application host.
This software is compatible with a number of "daemonizing" applications, with a preference for pm2 -- the application configuration for
this platform is included in this repository.
