|
||||
|
||||
### Format Specification
|
||||
|
||||
Quiz markdown files must follow this format:
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
Question text here?
|
||||
|
||||
- (X) Correct answer
|
||||
- ( ) Wrong answer 1
|
||||
- ( ) Wrong answer 2
|
||||
|
||||
# reason
|
||||
Explanation text here with markdown support.
|
||||
Can include **bold**, *italic*, and other markdown features.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Another question?
|
||||
|
||||
- [X] Correct answer 1
|
||||
- [X] Correct answer 2
|
||||
- [ ] Wrong answer
|
||||
|
||||
# reason
|
||||
Explanation for multiple choice question.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Format Rules
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Question Text**: Plain text (no `##` header needed)
|
||||
2. **Single Choice Answers**: Use `( )` for incorrect, `(X)` for correct (radio buttons)
|
||||
3. **Multiple Choice Answers**: Use `[ ]` for incorrect, `[X]` for correct (checkboxes)
|
||||
4. **Explanation**: Use `# reason` header followed by explanation text
|
||||
5. **Separator**: Use `---` between questions
|
||||
6. **Question Types**:
|
||||
- Single choice: Use `( )` and `(X)` notation
|
||||
- Multiple choice: Use `[ ]` and `[X]` notation
|
||||
|
||||
### Category Extraction
|
||||
|
||||
Questions can include category prefixes (used by HTML quiz for badges):
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
CATEGORY: Question text?
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will:
|
||||
- Extract "CATEGORY" as the category
|
||||
- Display "Question text?" as the clean question text
|
||||
- Show category badge in HTML quiz
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
S3: What is the max size of an S3 object in GB?
|
||||
|
||||
- ( ) 1000
|
||||
- (X) 5000
|
||||
- ( ) 10000
|
||||
|
||||
# reason
|
||||
The maximum size is 5TB or 5000GB.

|
||||
3. **Keep Backups**: Use `--force` carefully to avoid overwriting important files
|
||||
4. **Test HTML Quiz**: Open generated HTML in browser to verify all features work correctly
|
||||
5. **Limit Answer Options**: For Anki AllInOne format, keep questions to 5 or fewer options
|
||||
6. **Use Categories**: Add category prefixes (e.g., "S3:", "IAM:") for better organization in HTML quiz
|
||||
7. **Write Clear Explanations**: Use markdown formatting in explanations for better readability
|
||||
8. **Mobile Testing**: Test HTML quiz on mobile devices for responsive design verification
