What shall we use for communication - slack or discord?? @Kreijstal

In this issue we discuss about how the page functionality should be like.

• First we need the design of the page, we need to describe how will it look like. And what functionality it will have.

As I said in open-source-ideas/ideas#182 we want a place where students/users can submit their own exams, and everyone else can test themselves with the exams people submit.

This is my idea: Users can submit "questions" about a topic. And other users can tag the questions to make them clear what they are about. For this let me provide an example. Questions can be boolean, multiple choice, fill the blanks, and they can contain images, audios, etc.

Example
Q: The orbits of the planets around the sun are circular.
[true] [false]

When another user sees this question then they can click on either of the buttons, when they click false, they might also get an explanation on why their answer was wrong/right:

"Wrong: The orbits of the planets are close to circular, but are actually elliptical."

People can comment on the question if they want to discuss something, they can post about trivia or do memes, just like youtube comments.

Users can tag questions so this question will have tags like
[astronomy] ,[basic-astronomy], [boolean] (it means it is a true/false question), [5th grade] (I think?)

People can then just look all questions that have tags [basic astronomy], and they will get a lot of questions about this topic.

Suggestions welcome!

In this thread, we can discuss about the tech stack choice for the website prototype requirements and other tools that would be used as part of development.

Let us have this thread to discuss the minimum features, that we are going to support in the site

1. User registration
2. User Profile
3. Forgot password
4. Create questions
5. Create Quiz

etc.

Please add or modify

Well here we discuss how people would type/import questions into the website, this is extremely important to do right since it will be the core functionality of the website.

How will users format questions and answers?

How will we allow users to use LaTeX?

maybe we want to allow math questions and we also want to allow mathy answers, mathquill and all of that.
##How to implement multiple choice questions
what if the solutions is an image or an audio?

anyone has any questions?

Hi @Kreijstal , Can you provide access to this repository? so, I can plan the development accordingly.

So, basically we can start adding questions from other websites, because well, we need to get them from somewhere, right

https://www.studydrive.net/
http://www.kaplanquizzes.com/new-sat/
https://www.lingodeer.com/
https://www.duolingo.com/
https://hprovet.se/ (swedish)

I'm not sure if we should allow flashcard type of questions on our website like memrise or quizlet, I would be against it, since our goal is not to be another flashcard website or anki clone.

Also, we can do books!
