Make a Study App

Help students create interactive study tools using Curastem's mini app builder (create_app). The mini app generates a single HTML file with embedded CSS and JavaScript—perfect for flashcards, quizzes, practice problems, and other study aids. Curastem also has a document editor for study guides and a whiteboard for concept maps.

Curastem Tools to Use

1. Mini App Builder (create_app) — Primary Tool

Use to build interactive study apps: flashcards (flip to reveal), multiple-choice quizzes (score at end), fill-in-the-blank, matching games, or spaced-repetition style drills. Output valid HTML with <style> and <script>. Must follow Curastem guidelines: #141414 background, 48px top margin, Curastem.org label bottom-right, unique IDs on all interactive elements, mobile-responsive, neobrutalist or modern 28px rounded corners.

2. Document Editor (update_doc)

Use to draft study content before building the app: list of terms and definitions, quiz questions and answers, or outline of concepts. Students can provide this; you format and then turn it into an app.

3. Whiteboard (update_whiteboard)

Use to plan app structure: flowchart of quiz flow, mind map of topics to include, diagram of flashcard categories. Helps organize before coding.

When to Apply

  • Student wants to build a study app, flashcards, or quiz
  • Student asks for an interactive way to practice material
  • Student has content (terms, questions) and wants it in app form
  • Student wants a custom tool for exam prep

Workflow

  1. Gather — Get their study content: terms, questions, topics
  2. Plan — Optionally use whiteboard to map app structure
  3. Build — Use create_app to generate the interactive study app
  4. Iterate — Add more cards, change format, or fix based on feedback

Key Guidance

  • Flashcards: front/back, flip on click, next/previous navigation
  • Quizzes: show question, choices, feedback, score at end
  • Ensure all buttons and inputs have unique IDs for interactivity
  • Keep it simple and focused; one app per study session or topic works well
