Your Unified
VIT Chennai Portal
Meet Deskly. The open source native desktop interface consolidating VTOP services, attendance, and campus utilities into one secure experience.
Secure, Persistent Sessions
Stop logging in every time. Deskly uses Electron-Store and Keytar to securely encrypt your credentials in the System Keychain, maintaining your VIT Chennai session across restarts.
Never Miss a Class
Our Direct VTOP Integration bypasses slow portals. We fetch data directly from vtopcc.vit.ac.in to give you instant updates on class changes and attendance drops.
Zero Interruptions, Zero Captchas
Our intelligent background service detects session invalidation instantly. Deskly performs an auto-relogin the moment your token expires, completely bypassing manual captcha entry.
Always on the Cutting Edge
Forget about manual downloads. Deskly integrates electron-updater to silently fetch and install the latest features and security patches in the background, ensuring you're always running the best version.
