QueueBot: Manage Lab Submission Queues with Telegram

QueueBot is a GoLang-based Telegram bot designed to help students in my university group efficiently manage queues for submitting laboratory works. With this bot, students can:

• Create new queues for specific lab assignments.
• Join or leave existing queues seamlessly.
• Choose between shuffling the queue for fairness or advancing in straight order.
• See who is currently passing a lab work.

Benefits:

• Reduces waiting time: Queues ensure organized submissions, preventing chaotic rushes.
• Fairness and transparency: Shuffling and order options provide equal opportunity.
• Convenience and accessibility: Students can manage queues directly through Telegram.
• Notifications: Keeps everyone informed about their position and queue updates.
