- Page: https://www.whatwemade.app/p/aila
- What it is: Mobile app, for home & family
- Made by: [Christian Werther](https://www.whatwemade.app/u/rehtrew)
- Run it yourself: get the code and run your own copy
- Code: https://github.com/Rehtrew/aila (MIT, 0 stars)
- Languages: Danish
- Status: in progress, 20% built
- Wants contributors: The calendar and the posts feed need requests captured from the official app. Sick days and pickup times need their write calls confirmed. It also needs testing with more than one Aula login, especially families with several children, and someone to try it on Android.

## About

Aula is where Danish schools and daycares post everything parents need: what to pack for the trip, who's picking up, photos from the day. Aila is a quieter iPhone app on top of the same data. The home screen shows each child's day, and posts from all your kids land in one feed, next to messages, attendance and the photo gallery.

It signs in with MitID the way the official app does, and for now it only reads from Aula. Reporting a child sick or changing pickup times is built but switched off until the exact requests are confirmed, so nothing wrong ends up at the school.

It's about a fifth done and open for help. The screenshots show a made-up family, because the real data sits behind MitID. The app is in Danish.
