peril

A language learning trivia website that allows users to fully customize the questions that are asked. It also features a competitive mode where the users can compete for points in a game similar to Jeopardy.

The current UI progress. This will change in the future, and it is only a placeholder.

Languages:

French
Japanese

TODO:

Add a Japanese Language quiz sheet.
Fix the UI to look neater.

Build From Scratch:

Clone this repo, then make a new folder in the same directory as the cloned repo called "peril".
CD into the cloned repo, then run cmake ../peril.
CD into ../peril and then run cmake --build ..
Run ./peril. If everything returns 0, then all your files are there!

Adding A Language

Check the instructions for creating the C++ language files by going to cpp_src/fetch_data_LANG_TEMPLATE.cpp and cpp_src/fetch_data_LANG_TEMPLATE.hpp.
Add your fetch_data_LANG_XXX_all function to cpp_src/main.cpp in the main() function, before the line that says std::cout << "main() = 0" << endl;. Preferrably, you should call the function using std::cout like the ones above are called to give the user an indication of the language function's status.
Once you have added your fetch_data_LANG_XXX.cpp/.hpp files, add them to cpp_src/CMakeLists.txt.
Create a manifest file in category_data using the format manifest.lang.XXX.json (you can look at the other manifest files for examples).
Add your manifest file to the "quizzes" field in category_data/manifest.json.
Compile the program, and run it to generate all of the proper files.
