SHSAT App Update (May 2023)
Finally, this thing is building SHSAT practice quizzes!
Using a combo of AWS lambda, Rita.js, TypeScript, and OpenAI API endpoints, I’m now able to generate SHSAT practice quizzes on an automated schedule (currently using a Github Actions build pipeline).

The Quiz URL’s
Answer the questions on a phone or a laptop, see how you’re doing in real time, view hints, etc.
Print the quiz + the answer key for later — it is not high stakes. Not at all. There’s no gold coins you’d be losing out on — it’s intended as a consistent source of low-stakes practice
Rinse and repeat — like brushing your teeth (just do it in small doses, every day)

I’ll work out the kinks with some of the more difficult problem templates. Math is solid, and will continue to grow/improve/stabilize at a fast clip.
There will be more variety, and better problem permutations — number theory, geometry, area, perimeter, volume, inequalities, etc.
People will be able to make their own quizzes 🤔
