Courses API

[NuwanJ]

Design an API for the courses offered by the department.

• Identify the required/available parameters
• Create files for each course (with this repo or on a separate repo ?)
• Implement Jekyll liquid script + python script to build API files
• Swagger API definitions
• Add GitHub action

Course Information available on

Need to check with Dr. Isuru about the data updating mechanism, and where we can find the Course Plans

First, start with the information pages as the first phase, and will integrate the real-time updates and the timetable API in the next phase.
