Boy Scout troop leaders need to track adult training records and send regular updates to their troop members. However, updating records manually for 100+ people per troop was very tedious. I built a desktop app that automates the entire workflow: scraping member data, organizing it into sortable tables, and sending batch emails with one click. This reduced the time spent on record-keeping by 66% every week.

Built with Python and Tkinter for the desktop UI. I used the requests and BeautifulSoup libraries to scrape member data, parsing HTML tables into structured rows. One challenge I ran into was that the UI would freeze while data was being processed in the background. So, I separated the UI, HTTP requests, and data processing into different threads. Email templates are stored in JSON and support variable substitution for personalized batch sends.
