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.
Live in-lecture quiz portal
FastAPI + WebSocket + SQLite quiz portal designed for ~40 students per class session. Single-process, in-memory room manager, vanilla HTML/JS front-end, Caddy in front for TLS.
Quick local run
python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e '.[dev]'
cp .env.example .env # edit QUIZ_SECRET_KEY + QUIZ_ADMIN_PASSWORD
uvicorn app.main:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8001 --reload
Open http://127.0.0.1:8001/admin/, log in, create a quiz pool from a
JSON pool file (see examples/pool_example.json for the schema), create
a session, and share the join URL.
VPS deploy (one-shot)
On a fresh Ubuntu 24.04 LTS root SSH:
curl -fsSL https://gitea.ahkhan.me/apps/quiz/raw/branch/master/deploy/bootstrap.sh | bash
The bootstrap:
- apt-installs Caddy + Python venv tooling
- Creates a
quizsystem user (no shell, no SSH) - Clones this repo to
/opt/quiz - Builds the venv and installs the app
- Generates
QUIZ_SECRET_KEY, prompts forQUIZ_ADMIN_PASSWORD - Drops the systemd unit and Caddyfile
- Starts both services
- Curl-checks
127.0.0.1:8001/healthz
After: quiz.ahkhan.me is live with auto-Let's-Encrypt cert. To override
the domain or repo URL, set DOMAIN= or REPO_URL= in the environment
before running the script.
Class-day workflow
- Provision Aliyun Intl HK ECS pay-as-you-go (
ecs.t6-c2m1.large, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS). - Point DNS A-record
quiz.ahkhan.meat the new IP. - SSH in as root, run the curl|bash one-liner above.
- Open
quiz.ahkhan.me/admin/, log in, upload the week's pool JSON, create a session. - Share the QR / join URL with the class.
- After class:
scp root@<ip>:/opt/quiz/quiz.db ./backups/quiz-YYYY-MM-DD.db - Destroy the instance.
Quiz pool files
Real pool JSON files contain answer keys and must not be committed
to this repo. .gitignore excludes examples/*_pool.json (only
examples/pool_example.json may be tracked). Author pools elsewhere
(e.g., your course-material directory) and upload at runtime via the
admin UI.
Tests

runs in a tmux loop), see tests/stress/README.md.
Spec
SPEC.md documents the locked v1.0 design (state machine, scoring,
identity flow, all WS message types).
