Usage

cd skills/quiz
python main.py --input quiz.json --output quiz.html

Parameters:

• --input, -i: Input JSON file (required)
• --output, -o: Output HTML file (default: quiz.html)

Math (KaTeX)

Use LaTeX delimiters in questions, options, hints, or explanations to render formulas:

$\frac{a}{b}$ inline, or $$\int_0^1 x^2\,dx$$ block

Notes:

• Inline math uses $...$ and block math uses $$...$$.
• Escape literal dollar signs as \$ to avoid math parsing.
• When local KaTeX assets are available, a fonts/ folder is created next to the HTML for offline rendering.
