Finding Example Source Code

Often time to solve a problem, you just need to adapt someone else’s solution. There’s no shame in doing so: it saves time, teaches you new methods, and is arguably the way culture and technology evolve.

Besides typical public resources like Stack Overflow, UCD specific source code can be found at github.com/ucdavis and BitBucket. You should also feel free to ask for example source code from your colleagues.

Notably, there is the UCD project registry found on this website. It will enable you to see some projects for whom source code has been published and is cross-referenced by relevant tags such as whether a project uses CAS, Banner, LDAP, etc. This will help you find what you’re looking for quickly.
