The KAP Archive is an archival site that focuses on preserving program's from Khan Academy's KACP section; This project is in no way offiliated with or endoresed by Khan Academy. The project exists to preserve code from hidden/deleted programs and banned users on KACP.

This archive was created due to many KACP users being banned with all their programs hidden or deleted, many of these were works which I believe should be preserved. There has also been many programs removed from public view or entirely deleted of which I believe should also be preserved; For example Karlson 3D which was removed for alleged violence, in my opinion it was a display of skill in 3D game development on a platform that had previously seen virtually none. Many programs have been removed that in my opinion should not have been, which has spawned this project.

The easiest way to help would be to use the KAP Archive site and give feedback on your user experience. If you have the code to programs which have already been deleted you should check out the Request Hidden/Deleted Program form. Telling KACP users about this project would also be a great help. If you want to discuss archival, development or UX you can contact @shipment22 on Discord.

This project uses Bun, React (for server-side rendering), SCSS and bun:sqlite.

I try to comment code and keep it readable, but here's some info that might help out more with development:

• Database initialization is in src/init.jsx
• Main file with all server code in src/index.jsx
• Site pages are in src/pages using JSX to be rendered on the server; If you're new to JSX it's JS with HTML embeded and fairly easy to get a handle on.
• Components (cards, forms etc) are in src/components
• Assets including images and the webmanifest are in src/assets
• Common bits of code which could be considered library functionality are stored in src/libs
• Client side Javascript is stored in src/js
• All SCSS is stored in src/scss and ends up in src/css when compiled; If you haven't worked with SCSS, it's CSS syntax with Sass features, someone who's familiar with CSS should be able to adapt quickly.

To install dependencies:

bun install

To develop:

bun dev

To just build the CSS:

bun css

To run:

bun run index.jsx

This project was created using bun. Bun is a fast all-in-one JavaScript runtime.
