Because it would be very hard to find a collision of a file that behaves exactly like a ZipFile. To make a collision work, you would need to inject the payload into the program, and find a specific blob to put into the zip file, that once c

I dabbled with implementing Swift on JavaScript, but has proven a bit difficult. The grammar is very big and just implementing a parser is huge task on its own. I would like to see someone tackle this though.

I've never tried Canvas, but from what I could gather it seems it is just a LMS. FenixEdu is a combination between a Academic Management System and a LMS. It has course pages, but also manages the diploma emission, teacher credits, roo

FenixEdu has been in use for the last 10 years, and in continuous development over that time, so I would say it its mature. It didn't started as a LMS, actually started as a Academic Management System. We needed a system to control all
