FET is an AGPL licensed, free time tabling software for automatically scheduling the timetable of a school, high-school or university. FET is written in C++ using the Qt cross-platform application framework. Initially, FET stood for "Free Evolutionary Timetabling"; as it is no longer evolutionary, the E in the middle can stand for anything the user prefers.

Custom made versions of FET are available for Moroccan, Algerian and US high-schools.
