This is a replica of the famous online quiz web application "Kahoot!". This application however has only one of the functionalitites of kahoot, that is create a quiz and host it as a challenge by setting start date and time, end date and time and share it with students. This application makes use of chart.js library for generating and displaying charts and dialogFlow for chatbot. This is developed using MEAN stack.
There are two roles, namely student and teacher. The teacher can create a quiz and host it as a challenge by setting title, description, start date time, end date time. The students can log in to their account and play the quiz by entering the game PIN shared by the teacher. The student can see his score once the deadline has passed.

- Clone the repository by cicking the Code on the repository above, and copy the HTTP URL, then go to the comand prompt and use git clone .
- Before starting the application, first create a database in mongo named "quizzards"
- I have used DocumentDB from Azure as the MongoDB URI. You can download MongoDB locally and setup its URI here at config/database.js and replacing the "var dbURI =" variable with the URI of locally hosted MongoDB.
- I have brought the domain "https://quizzards.site/" and is valid upto 2024-03-27 . So i have deployed the git repository on vercel and have routed to the custom domain brought. - Here the front-end client source code hav been deployed sucessully and is live. The back-end is not deployed and needs to be started manually. - Hence, clone the repository and then start the server on your localhost by the steps gicen in the next section.
To start the Server :
- node index.js
To run the application on the browser:
- Open a new terminal and run cd client/
- ng serve
- Navigate to
http://localhost:4200/.
- Used JWT for login
- The user can play a quiz only once
- On submitting a quiz, the user is redirected to the feedback page. Here the student cannot redirect back to the Quiz.
- Teachers can get an overview of student's performances with the help of charts.
