To use the Noodle Homepage you need to get the correct address of instance, that you want wo visit and enter it into the address bar of your browser. Currently there are two possible ways:

  • If you deployed noodle on your personal computer you can simply visit the address 127.0.0.1:8080
  • If you want to visit the noodle instance of your school or your university, you need to ask the corresponding administrator. But most of the times, the address should also be found on the official school's or universities' homepage.

1. Login

To login, you need to use the credentials you where given with your account and enter the username into the field username and the password into the field password.
If you entered the wrong credentials or your account has not been created yet, you get a red warning saying that ether your password or your username is not correct.

If you are just setting up your instance, you need to use the credentials, that you where provided with your personal license. After you finished searching for a couple hours and are frustratingly calling our support, just try putting in the combination of administrator and administrator, which should simply work. But please remember to change the password of this user or create another administrator and delete this one, because otherwise everybody else using your instance will try the same trick.

2. Usage of noodle

But if you need help, or really want to learn all functions of the noodle frontend, we indeed created a manual for all of the main functions. To get to the explanation for each function, just click on the desired entry in the upcoming directory. Because not all functions are possible to use for everybody, the letters behind each entry correspond to the needed privileges. s stands for student, t for teacher and a for admin.
