What a lab index contains
A practical file usually begins with an index that lists every experiment with its serial number, the date it was performed, the page it starts on, and a column for the teacher's signature. This tool builds that table for you. Dates are filled in from the first lab date and the gap you choose (7 days for a weekly lab), and the Page and Signature columns are left blank to fill by hand.
Example
The sample is a DBMS Lab (BCS351) with eight experiments, from "Create tables with constraints" to "Triggers". With a first lab on 4 August 2026 and a 7-day gap, the dates run 04-08-2026, 11-08-2026, 18-08-2026 and so on, up to 22-09-2026 for experiment 8. The PDF is named lab-file-index.pdf; long experiment titles wrap within their row, and a new page starts automatically if the list is long.
Tips
- Missed a week? Download, then correct that date by hand, or move the experiment to the end of the list.
- Leave the date blank to get an empty Date column.
- Most teachers check that experiments are in the order they were done, so keep the list in date order.
- The file is created in your browser with jsPDF, so your details aren't uploaded. Use English letters for names.
