It will reduce the time to create a separate absentees list thereby comparing with the students namelist list.

Setup the development environment and create a basic project structure.

Collect the namelist from any source that must be sorted accordingly and it must be an UTF-8 encoded text file.
Collect the Usernames from Canvas site using web scrapping methods.
Store the Usernames with their respective Names from the Namelist in a JSON file.
Collect the present namelist from any source but it must be an UTF-8 encoded text file.

Extract the data from the present namelist, filter out the unwanted details and remove the other class students names incase if they're included.
Remove the duplicates since users can join from multiple sources that causes multiple usernames in the present list.
store the filtered namelist in a JSON file.
Compare the filtered namelist with the the JSON file encompassing both usernames and students names.
Generate absentees list and store it in a list temporarily.

Create a GUI for use in desktop.
It must contain the following widgets: 1 A main frame that contains text box which shows the absentees list(located upper left side).
2 A secondary frame contained few buttons for added functionality(located full right side).
3 A text box in the main frame shows the status of the other process running at background.
