I don't like the official website, I don't like visiting there every day to see just the menu. Here, Hacettepe Cafeteria Bot comes as a simple solution to this issue. What's even better is that you don't need to install mobile or desktop apps to use such a simple tool. You can directly use it via Telegram.

Hacettepe Cafeteria Bot is an uncomplicated tool with a straightforward aim. Only thing that makes it really useful is the problem it solves. Therefore, we don't see many contributions. Yet, you can still request new features or report the issues you faced. For those who knows a bit Python also can help with the development.
Any "I encountered this bug or that bug" or "oh, I think this feature would be useful" type of communications can be done by opening an issue on GitHub. If you don't use GitHub, and came here to see what's going on, you can send email to current maintainer furkansimsekli.
Grab an issue from the list, and open a PR. Issues with good first issue tags are specifically tagged that way so that
new volunteers can make contributions easier. Please consider opening a new issue if you are going to do something
unheard of.
