About

This application is a multiplayer game entirely built on Salesforce technology. A game host presents questions from a Salesforce Org on a shared screen or a video projector. Players compete by answering those questions in real-time using a Lightning Web Component Open Source mobile application hosted on Heroku. The fastest player to give the correct answer scores the most points. As the game progresses, leaderboards are displayed so that players can keep track of scores and ranks.

The quiz app was launched during Developer Game Night at Dreamforce 2019.
