# Computer Science Flash Cards
|
|
|
|
This is a little website I've put together to allow me to easily make flash cards and quiz myself for memorization of:
|
|
|
|
- general cs knowledge
|
|
- vocabulary
|
|
- definitions of processes
|
|
- powers of 2
|
|
- design patterns
|
|
- code
|
|
- data structures
|
|
- algorithms
|
|
- solving problems
|
|
- bitwise operations
|
|
|
|
Will be able to use it on:
|
|
- desktop
|
|
- mobile (phone and tablet)
|
|
|
|
It uses:
|
|
- Python 3
|
|
- Flask
|
|
- SQLite
|

## How to run it
|
|
|
|
1. Clone project to a directory on your web server.
|
|
1. Edit the config.txt file. The username and password will be the login
|
|
for your site. There is only one user - you.
|
|
1. Follow this long tutorial to get Flask running. It was way more work than it should be:
|
|
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-serve-flask-applications-with-uwsgi-and-nginx-on-ubuntu-16-04
|
|
- `wsgy.py` is the entry point. It calls `flash_cards.py`
|
|
- This is my systemd file `/etc/systemd/system/flash_cards.service`: [view](flash_cards.service)
|
|
- when done with tutorial:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo systemctl restart flash_cards
|
|
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
```
|
|
1. When you see a login page, you're good to go.
|
|
1. Uncomment the commented block in `flash_cards.py`
|
|
1. Restart Flask. You have to use `sudo systemctl restart flash_cards`.
|
|
1. Hit the URL /initdb on your web server. You'll see a message that the
|
|
database has been initialized.
|
|
1. Comment that code again.
|
|
1. Restart Flask.
|
|
1. Go to / on your webserver.
|
|
1. Log in.
|
|
1. Click the "General" or "Code" button and make a card!
|
|
1. When you're ready to start memorizing, click either "General" or "Code"
|
|
in the top menu.
