The Problem
Every semester, instructors around the world face the same ritual: create a syllabus. It's a one-time (or twice-yearly) document — course title, learning objectives, grading scale, assignment schedule, policies.
And Canva wants $12.99 a month for it.
That's $155.88 a year for a tool you use maybe four times. Four times. For a document that lives in a PDF for 15 weeks and then gets archived.
The Solution
I built a free, browser-based Course Syllabus Generator. It does exactly what you need:
- Course info: title, code, instructor, credits, semester
- Learning objectives: bullet-point format, auto-formatted
- Grading scale: flexible, any format you type in
- Assignment schedule: add/remove rows dynamically
- Course policies: attendance, late work, academic integrity
- Three template styles: Classic, Modern, Minimal (Pro unlocks all)
- Print-ready output: download as HTML, print to PDF in one click
- No signup, no account, no data collection — your content stays in your browser
Why It Exists
Because instructors with discretionary budgets shouldn't have to subscribe to a design platform for a document they create once per term. Canva is amazing for design work. It's absurd pricing for a syllabus.
