🔑 Key Features Explained

CR Label Auto-Assignment

When a user signs up or authenticates via OAuth, the system automatically:

Checks if their email matches an entry in the CR database tables
Assigns appropriate CR label (MCR, FCR, MACR, FACR) via Appwrite API
Updates user session to reflect new permissions
Grants access to CR-only features (room booking, join request management)

Implementation: lib/crLabelUtils.js + app/api/assign-cr-label/route.js

Channel System

Students: Browse available channels, request to join, view announcements
CRs: Create channels, approve/reject join requests, post announcements, manage members
Features: Course-based organization, section-specific content, admin controls

Room Booking System

CRs can:

Search for empty rooms by building, time slot, and room type
View real-time availability based on routine data
Book rooms for their section
View and manage their bookings
Gender-specific schedule handling (Male/Female timings)

Authentication Flow
