Who needs Aspen when you have Aspine? It serves as a one stop shop for everything Aspen related, and there are rainbows!
Using Aspine is as easy as 1-2-3. Just visit https://aspine.cpsd.us and log in with your Aspen credentials.
If you have an iPhone and would prefer to use an app instead of the website, Aspine is on the iOS App Store.

Short answer: Aspine does not store any usernames, passwords, or student data. Moreover, https://aspine.cpsd.us is hosted on CPSD servers, so your data are safe in any case.
Long answer: Aspine works by simulating a login on Aspen and formatting the data received. In doing this, it must transmit your username and password to the Aspen server. However, your login information is transmitted completely over encrypted connections (HTTPS), and it is not retained by Aspine at all. This can be verified by anyone who can read code, as all of our code is out in the open on this repository. If you are particularly paranoid, you can run Aspine locally on your computer instead of using the https://aspine.cpsd.us instance; instructions are below in the section "Contributing / Locally Running Aspine".
First, calculated category percentages are computed by dividing a student's total earned points within a category by the total available points for that category. Then, the category percentages are multiplied by their respective weights and summed in order to produce the calculated grade for a class.
Note:
- Assignments scored with free text (i.e. "Missing", "Exempt") are ignored during grade computation. (Improvements coming soon)
- Due to the mysterious workings of Aspen, it is impossible to achieve 100% accuracy when making grade prediction calculations. That being said, Aspine's cutting edge grade calcuation algorithm is unmatched.
If you have a grade export (as a JSON file) and want to view it using Aspine, you may run into the problem that the current version of Aspine is too new to view your JSON file (or you just want to view your grades offline). We have created a variant of Aspine called "Aspine Lite" which contains the complete Aspine user interface but without connecting to Aspine or Aspen servers over the Internet.
Downloads for Aspine Lite can be found under "Assets" on the Releases page on
GitHub. To use Aspine Lite, simply
download the zip file, extract it to a folder, and open home.html in a Web
browser.
Feel free to suggest an enhancement or report a bug either via GitHub issues or this form!
If you would like to directly contribute to Aspine, you can fork this
repository and clone your fork on your computer with a
git client. Please use the master branch as the base
of your changes.
If you would just like to try out Aspine on your computer, you can click on the green "Code" button above the file list and download and extract a ZIP file with Aspine.

Make sure that you have installed node.js, including npm.
-
On Linux-based operating systems, you should be able to find node.js in your package manager (e.g.
apt/dpkg,yum/dnf,zypper,pacman, or a GUI such as Ubuntu Software Center or GNOME Software); npm may be in a separate package. -
On macOS, node.js (including npm) is available on Homebrew as
node. -
On Windows, the node.js installer can be downloaded from the website. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
-
-
Install additional dependencies through node.js (this must be done each time you clone or download Aspine) by opening a terminal in the directory where you cloned or downloaded Aspine and running
npm install. -
Start the Aspine server by running
npm startin a terminal window (or Command Prompt on Windows). If you are on a Unix-like system, you can runnpm start &to run the server in the background and then runkillall nodewhen you want to kill the server.
