To include a new exercise, add the folder with the exercise contents in exercises/static/exercises following the file name conventions. Then, create the entry in db.sqlite3. A simple way to do this is by using the Django admin page:
- Run
python3.8 manage.py runserver. - Access http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ on a browser and log in with "user" and "pass".
- Click on "add exercise" and fill the fields: exercise id (folder name), name (name to display), state, language and description (description to display). Save and exit.
- Commit db.sqlite3 changes.
