Hi Christos, 👋

Your workflow sounds like a great match for FET Timetable Explorer — it's designed for exactly those post-generation, manual tweaks you mentioned (quick drag-and-drop, room or day swaps, conflict checks, etc.).

I am just sharing this in case you may miss the latest tools updates section.

Also, big salute to the great work behind the FET – Edit + Print Tool — it's been very useful for many users!

Happy scheduling! 🙌

When we create a school schedule using the FET program, we enter the data for teachers and groups, arranged according to subjects and grade levels. My goal in arranging this is to maintain the same original order in the FET program and the FET outputs.

Just to clarify — is this mainly for printing purposes? 🖨�
And does your exported CSV file from FET already keep the same order you'd like to preserve?

Just trying to understand the goal better 😊

Thank you very much for the new update that solved the problem of arranging days and times.
A new suggestion for improvement is to add arrows above and below, for teachers, and for groups in entity management, up to a specific order specified by the user.
God bless you.

Thank you very much for the kind words and suggestion — much appreciated! 🙏
Could you please clarify the purpose of reordering teachers and groups? Just to understand how you'd like it to work.

Thank you very much for the detailed feedback, Steffen — really appreciated! 🙏

Great ideas, and why not? I'll definitely look into these possibilities.

Keep an eye on this thread and on our YouTube channel for upcoming new features! 🎥✨

All done! 🎉 @abuayham2016 

The print layout has been updated — days and times are now arranged properly. Thanks again for pointing it out! 🙏

Print Page will respect your settings in the Entity Management for days & time slots ordering.

Many thanks for the new project.The days and times are not arranged in the print.We need to manage the entities in the print button.

Yes, thanks for the feedback — really appreciated! 🙏 I'm already working on it and will let you know once it's fixed.

Hi everyone! 👋

I've just published a new walkthrough video showing how to create, customize, and manage a complete timetable using our interactive dashboard — built around FET's CSV export structure.

🎥 Watch the Demo:

🧩 What's Inside:

📘 How to create a new timetable from an FET-style CSV file

👩 Managing subjects, teachers, rooms, and groups

🖱 Drag-and-drop editing and instant updates

⚡ Detecting and resolving conflicts in real time

🧠 Smart rescheduling with student-safe time slots

🖨 Beautiful printing and export options for teachers, rooms, and groups

Everything happens in a clean, modern interface — designed to make timetable management not just efficient, but also fun to use.

If you're already using FET or managing schedules manually, this video shows how the dashboard can make your workflow faster, visual, and flexible.

💬 Feel free to share your thoughts, feedback, or feature ideas below — I'd love to hear what you think and what you'd like to see next!

Hi everyone 👋

I'm excited to share FET Viewer, a modern web-based companion app for FET timetables. It's not open-source, but completely free to use — no subscriptions, no paywalls, no vendor lock-in.

✨ Main Features
🗂 Upload your FET-generated CSV timetable

🧩 Drag-and-Drop Interface – Move activities interactively to adjust or fine-tune schedules

🧩 Explore it in a clean, interactive interface

⚡ Detect conflicts instantly (teachers / students / rooms)

🖨 Print timetables with fine-tuned layouts and customization — export beautiful, ready-to-share schedules

🔐 Private access tokens for secure team collaboration (shared editing / restricted viewing)

🌍 Public access tokens for easy public sharing (view-only mode)

🧪 Try the demo (no sign-up needed) → https://fetviewer.com/demo


"Free and Agile. No subscriptions, no paywalls, no vendor lock-in. Use it freely."

FET Viewer is built to complement FET, not compete with it — it simply makes viewing, sharing, printing, and collaborating on timetables easier for schools, teachers, and administrators.


💡 Why I Built It ?

FET is an incredible open-source timetabling engine — powerful, flexible, and indispensable.
However, I saw a need for a modern web viewer that could make exploring, refining, and sharing FET timetables easier for everyone involved.

FET Viewer fills that gap.

It provides a visual, interactive layer on top of your FET data — helping teachers, administrators, and coordinators visualize, detect conflicts, and print polished timetables with precision.

Whether you're reviewing a full schedule or preparing customized printouts for a specific teacher, group, or room, FET Viewer gives you total control.
Big thanks to Liviu and Volker for their support and for adding it to the official Tools / Links section 🙏

📖 You can read the full background story and discussion here:

🎉 Introducing FET Timetable Explorer — A Modern Web Interface for FET Timetable

Happy to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Fine, I created a new entry in the Tools/Links section of the FET homepage, in section 2 (proprietary), and placed it before FET READ, which is old and unmaintained anymore.

Then, I created a new FET forum board in FET Tools, and fetviewer is a moderator.

Please check both and let me know if the text is fine!

Thank you! I will invite you, fetviewer, to make the first post in this new forum board.

Thank you very much. ı will do.

[it's completely free to use]

Thanks again for the follow-up! 😊
Just to clarify — the project isn't open source, but it's completely free to use. I also updated the section on the site to make that clear:

"Free and Agile. No subscriptions, no paywalls, no vendor lock-in. Use it freely."

It's not meant to compete with FET at all — rather, it's just a web-based companion that helps visualize timetables generated by FET.

I really appreciate your attention to these details and your support in sharing it responsibly on the homepage 🙏

Your website looks very professional. Small possible improvement: You wrote "Free and Open Source...", but you forgot to set the link to the source (or I didn't saw that link).

Yes, why not adding it. What do you suggest as description for the board? I fear your description from your website is too long for the FET Forum. It should be shorter.

Thank you very much. You're right — a shorter version makes sense. How about something like:

"A modern web-based viewer for FET timetables — clean, interactive, and easy to use."

Also, just to clarify — while it was initially described as free and open source, it's currently free to use, but not open source. I'll make sure the description reflects that correctly.

Thank you so much! 😊 I'm really glad you like it!
Yes, that sounds wonderful — having it linked on the FET homepage and a dedicated board under FET Tools would be great! It'll make it easier for users to find and share feedback. I'd be happy about that! 🙌
