Versions:
Assignment Packer 1.0.3, published by Ian Fogarty, is a lightweight Windows utility designed to streamline the preparation of C programming coursework for Canvas submission. Positioned within the Academic / Developer Tools category, the program automates the traditionally manual process of collecting source files, headers, build artifacts, and documentation into a single, properly named zip archive that conforms to typical university upload requirements. Instructors who specify that every assignment must arrive as one compressed file, teaching assistants who batch-download dozens of submissions, and students who repeatedly forget to include the makefile or readme all benefit from the tool’s one-click workflow: it scans the project folder, filters by user-defined extensions, preserves relative paths, and produces a time-stamped package whose filename embeds the student’s system login and course code. Because the same packaging rules can be stored as a preset, subsequent submissions remain consistent across multiple modules or semesters. Version 1.0.3 is the second public release; the earlier 1.0.2 build introduced recursive directory support, while the current update adds an integrity check that warns if the total uncompressed size exceeds Canvas limits. Both editions remain available so that legacy coursework templates continue to work unchanged. Assignment Packer is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
