Hecz study lab
Official study app. Open-source lab.
The production app is the curated Hecz study experience. The public repo is the starter kit for people who want to fork it, build their own question bank, and run a local class lab.
Production
Curated Hecz study app
Use this when the goal is studying with the official bank and app behavior.
- Bank import is locked unless explicitly enabled.
- Official content remains the default experience.
- Learners should start with Practice, Review, Flashcards, and Compete.
Lab / fork
Build your own bank
Use this when the goal is teaching, remixing, or creating a personal/classroom question bank.
- Local development enables import automatically.
- Deployed forks can set NEXT_PUBLIC_ENABLE_BANK_IMPORT=true.
- Students bring allowed notes, labs, and source-checked resources.
First lab run
The workflow is intentionally small.
- Fork or clone the public starter.
- Pick one narrow topic.
- Write five original questions and three flashcards.
- Import locally, run a short session, and revise weak explanations.
Share with class
One scan gets everyone to the lab.
Use this for a class demo, study group, or project showcase. The public repo stays clean; the official production app keeps its curated bank locked.
study.hecz.dev/lab
Short path for slides, Discord, classroom screens, and phone sharing.
Demo bank walkthrough
Start with five questions before building a full bank.
This keeps the first lab realistic: students learn the content loop and source discipline before they try to create hundreds of items.
01
Pick a narrow topic
Example: TCP vs UDP, not all of networking.
02
Write five original MCQs
Each question needs one best answer and explanations for the distractors.
03
Add three flashcards
Use these for exact facts, port numbers, acronyms, or short definitions.
04
Track allowed sources
Use class notes, labs, official objectives, and resources you have permission to reuse.
05
Import, miss, revise
Run the bank locally, review misses, then rewrite weak explanations before adding more.
