Interesting open-source take on Duolingo-style learning
From 2 comments
This is awesome! I had the same idea in high school and wrote a whitepaper about it. Personally, I think Duolingo shouldn't exist in its current form. The courses are all created…

Good looking app

Objections
Should focus on one market instead of enterprise, schools and marketplace
From 2 comments

Import/export of course content such as JSON or version control
From 2 comments
There's a dashboard where users can manage questions for each course. It's pretty basic right now: - You can add multiple question. - Each question can have some content, one…

Questions
How are question types implemented
From 1 comment
