Quizzly – Smart Quizzes. Smarter Kids.
This was created during AMUHacks4.0, under the theme of Smart Education by Team ByteClub
[!Note] Please wait a few seconds at first for the frontend, when it make the first call to render, it takes some time to spin up a sleeping instance.
For a live demo, please see https://quizzlyio.netlify.app
The Backend API is public and hosted on https://quizzly-backend.onrender.com/docs
Important
Render — the cloud service we use for deployment — spins down a free web service that goes 15 minutes without receiving inbound traffic, and spins it back up whenever a request is received. It causes a noticeable delay for the first few requests until the service is back up and running, and the browser page may hang in the meantime. Kindly give it a couple of minutes.
Why Quizzly? In an age where every child learns differently, Quizzly gives parents full control to test, track, and train their children at their own pace. Whether it's basic math, science concepts, or general knowledge, Quizzly brings structure, gamification, and AI-driven insights into a child's learning journey.
- Parent-Centric Quiz Creation
- Parents/tutors can create quizzes tailored to different topics and varying levels of difficulty.
- Quizzly auto-generates curated question sets based on selected topics – fully customizable by the parent.
- Questions can be edited, modified, and reused to suit each child’s learning needs.
- Parents can assign quizzes to children using secure 4-digit PINs.
- Child-Friendly Participation
- Kids can start a quiz by simply entering a 4-digit PIN and a fun, unique name (like their favorite player or pet).
[!Tip] Choose a different fruit for more fun :\
- No accounts. No complexity. Just pure learning and fun.
- Smart Feedback & Analytics
- After submitting the quiz, children get immediate feedback:
- Correct and incorrect questions
- Detailed explanations
- Personalized results
- Scores and answers are logged for parents to monitor and mentor effectively.
- Beautiful Performance Analytics
- Parents receive clear and intuitive analytics dashboards:
- Track strengths and weaknesses
- Visual progress over time
- Topic-wise performance breakdown
- Helps in identifying learning gaps and mentoring efficiently.
- AI-Powered Learning Assistant

First things first, create a virtual environment and activate it.
We will use Dockerfile
to orchestrate everything.
Note
Before starting, please ensure port 8000 is open. You can use lsof -i :8000
for a quick check.
git clone https://github.com/rajuljha/ByteClub_AMUHACKS4.0
cd ByteClub_AMUHACKS4.0
mv .env.sample .env
Populate the environment variables after seeing in the env.sample file.
Install dependencies and run the server.
pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn quizzly.main:app --reload
If you don't want the hassle, pull the official backend image from the Dockerhub registry,
Note
This image is built for linux/amd64
platform only. If you want to run on a different host, please install locally instead.
docker pull rjknightmare/quizzly-backend
docker run -p 8000:8000 --env-file .env rjknightmare/quizzly-backend:latest
The backend will be up and running on https://localhost:8000 (Visit /docs endpoint for complete API documentation powered by Swagger UI).
Note
Before starting, please ensure port 8080 is open. You can use lsof -i :8000
for a quick check.
- Frontend: (Make sure to have node package manager (npm) installed on your device)
cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev
If all goes well, the app should be live at http://localhost:8080.
- Backend: FastAPI (Python 3.10), MongoDB, Pydantic, Uvicorn
- Frontend: Vite + React + TypeScript
- Deployment: Dockerized backend, Render-friendly, ENV-variable support
- Extras: AI suggestions, RESTful APIs, analytics dashboard, real-time feedback

The total cost of running Quizzly largely depends on your backend hosting, database, task queues, and frontend delivery. Considering the following assumptions for usage:
- 📊 10,000 quizzes per day
- 🔁 25,000 total API calls/day (including quiz start/end, question fetch, results storage)
- 👪 Active user load of ~100 concurrent users during peak hours
- 🎯 Moderate AI resource usage for recommendations
We can estimate the monthly infrastructure costs assuming you're deploying on AWS:
| Resource | Purpose | On-demand Hourly Price | Approximate Monthly
| Amazon EC2 t3.micro
FastAPI backend | To run Uvicorn ASGI server | $0.0104 | ~$7.50
| Amazon RDS db.t4g.micro
MongoDB alt | For managing quiz, user, and result data | $0.016 | ~$11.52
| Amazon S3 / CloudFront
optional | For serving static frontend via CDN | ~free-tier or < $1 | ~$1.00
Total Estimated Monthly Cost: ~$43 - $46/month
