Targeted fixes on top of the editorial-lecture-hall pass:
- Leaderboard rank columns now align across all rows; medal stripes
reserve their 3px width on every row (no more 6px shift between
podium and chasers). Silver bumps to higher-contrast values in both
light and dark modes.
- Student leaderboard gains a visible "you" highlight (blue stripe,
blue name + score, small "you" eyebrow under the name). Matches by
display name since the server's student-facing top5 doesn't include
student_id.
- Lobby and Finished states share an editorial state-cta treatment:
display-serif "Ready to start." / "That's a wrap." with a numeric
cta-stats strip that anchors the right column on a projector.
- "02 PRE-FLIGHT" eyebrow continues the "01 JOIN" sequence on the
side panel, giving the page a magazine-spread rhythm.
- Live distribution suppresses empty bars when zero submissions and
shows a calm italic "Bars appear once the first answer comes in."
line instead.
- Roster orders newest-first; the top three rows light their dot
green and the freshest row gets a soft pulsing halo, so the
operator sees the room filling up at a glance.
- Student reveal "Your pick" tag moves to a top-edge ribbon above the
option text so it stops colliding with the count column on phones.
Editorial-lecture-hall direction: Source Serif 4 for question prose
and headlines, IBM Plex Sans chrome, IBM Plex Mono for tabular numerics
(countdown, scores, rank, session id, join URL). Single ink-blue accent
in light mode, brass-amber in dark mode; warm paper background instead
of the soft grey wash. Dropped border-radius from soft 14px to a sharp
2-4px to read as printed material rather than consumer app.
Density rebalanced for the two viewing surfaces. Student question text
goes to clamp(1.5rem, 2.4vw, 1.95rem) so it dominates a 390px phone;
admin chrome (Q-num, countdown, hist labels) tightened so the projector
read is "QUESTION LIVE" + question + options + distribution at a glance
across a 1920x1080 lecture hall. State badge is uppercase + tracked
with a status dot; live state pulses, urgent countdown (<=10s) blinks.
Leaderboard becomes a tabular scoreboard: hairline borders, alternating
row tint, gold/silver/bronze left-border medals on top 3 only (no other
rank treatments), mono numerics throughout. QR panel now has its own
SCAN TO JOIN eyebrow, the URL row sits below in mono with a copy CTA,
session id rendered as a code chip, anchored as one shareable artifact.
Picked-answer button gets a 2-step settle (scale 0.97 -> 1, color
swap), correct-row reveal animates an inset border-draw, countdown bar
gets a slow breathing highlight overlay; all motion respects
prefers-reduced-motion. JS change is one line per SPA: toggle .urgent
on the countdown when remaining <= 10s.
Backend simplification:
- The server now loads ONE pool JSON from $QUIZ_POOL_PATH at startup and
upserts a single canonical session. The session id comes from the pool
JSON's optional "session_id" field, falling back to $QUIZ_SESSION_ID.
- The multi-quiz / multi-session CRUD API is gone:
DELETED GET/POST /admin/api/quizzes
DELETED POST /admin/api/quizzes/upload
DELETED GET/POST /admin/api/sessions
DELETED GET /admin/login (HTML stub)
DELETED GET /admin/api/sessions/{sid}/csv (replaced by /admin/api/csv)
Replaced with a single-session control surface:
GET /admin/ — serves admin.html unconditionally
GET /admin/api/state — admin-gated; pool meta + state + QR + join URL
POST /admin/api/reset — admin-gated; wipe submissions + back to lobby
POST /admin/logout — clear admin cookie
GET /admin/api/csv — single-session results
WS /ws/instructor/{sid} — kept; new commands "next" + "reset"
- Instructor "Next" button is now a single state-driving command
(RoomManager.advance_to_next): from lobby it opens Q0; from question_open
it closes the current Q and opens the next; from question_closed it
opens the next; if past the last question it ends the session.
- New RoomManager.reset wipes submissions, participants, and per-question
state, then broadcasts a clean lobby.
- Student GET / now redirects to /?sid=<canonical> when no sid is given,
so the QR / share URL is fully deterministic.
Frontend rewrite (functional baseline; visual polish to follow):
- /admin/ is now a single SPA: GET /admin/api/state decides login form
vs dashboard. No separate /admin/login URL bar.
- Admin dashboard is state-driven with one primary action per state.
QR code, join URL, and live participant list are always visible on the
left so the operator can leave the page on a projector.
- Student answer buttons are big and tappable; reveal screen highlights
correct/wrong choice + shows score, total, and rank.
- Static admin/student SPAs share a CSS palette with light/dark support.
Tests rewritten around the single canonical session id.
The auto-bootstrapped session lets each test fixture skip the old
quiz/session creation dance. 39/39 tests pass.
Cleanup:
- Deleted CODEX_PROMPT.md, IMPLEMENTATION_REPORT.md, NOTES.md, SPEC.md,
static/observer.html (obsolete codex-build artifacts and the unused
observer view).
- .gitignore now blocks /pool.json (the runtime file the operator drops
on the server) and the leftover .codex_done / codex_run.log / etc.
- bootstrap.sh seeds /opt/quiz/pool.json from examples/pool_example.json
on first deploy so a fresh box reaches a usable state without manual
intervention; .env now includes QUIZ_POOL_PATH.
