What it is
A simple, touch-optimized educational web application designed to help 7th grade students study early American government history. It provides vocabulary flashcards (with swipe gestures), an interactive timeline of 1787-1791, topical study sections covering the Articles of Confederation and Constitutional Convention, and a quick multiple-choice quiz with instant feedback. All features are mobile-responsive and work without a backend database.
Why I built it
Likely built to provide a practical, accessible study tool for a specific history chapter—possibly for a child, tutoring, or classroom use. The mobile-first design and subject specificity suggest it was created to meet a real learning need rather than as a generic demonstration.
Tech stack
PHP 7.4+ (OOP with StudyGuideApp and StudyData classes), Tailwind CSS for responsive UI, vanilla JavaScript for interactivity (swipe gestures, flashcards), static content (no database). Deployed via GitHub Actions CI and a Procfile.
Timeline & effort
Last active Oct 3, 2025 — 4 commits across 1 active day (spanning 0 days).
Very rapid build: 4 commits over a single day (October 3, 2025), spanning roughly 32 minutes of commit activity. This suggests a focused, single-session implementation—likely scaffolded quickly with content and styling finalized in one push.
Did it turn out useful?
Despite the minimal commit history, the app is complete and functional with multiple study modes (flashcards, timeline, quiz, sections), mobile-optimized UX, and deployment CI configured. The specific educational content and polished README suggest it was shipped for actual use—likely by a student or teacher—rather than left as an experiment.
