The World of QuizMaster
QuizMaster World is the organisation that develops the QuizMaster game, a free and open source software for everyone to enjoy.
We have an active and friendly community committed to enhancing the QuizMaster experience. This community works tirelessly to develop multiple variants of the QuizMaster game and to create and curate new quizzes that cover a wide array of topics. Everyone is encouraged to participate, share their creativity, and contribute to the growing library of quizzes.
Other Versions of QuizMaster
While the original QuizMaster app is by far the most feature-rich and aesthetically pleasing option, there are several alternative versions tailored for different use cases and user preferences. All of these versions are organized under the QuizMaster Organisation, providing quick accessibility to all. Below is a brief overview of each version:
- QuizMasterLite is the first lighter version of the QuizMaster App, designed for users who need the core functionality of QuizMaster without the additional "frills" that increase size and complexity. By focusing on retaining the essential quiz creation and playing capabilities, QuizMasterLite ensures that users can still enjoy a seamless and engaging experience while benefiting from a significantly smaller application footprint.
- QuizMasterMini: This scaled-down version is designed for use on smaller devices or for users who may have budgetary constraints regarding data volumes. It retains many of the core functionalities, making it a suitable alternative for those who need a simpler interface without sacrificing key features.
- QuizMasterTerminal: A minimalist iteration of QuizMaster, QuizMasterTerminal uses only 1.4 MB of storage. The significant difference here is the absence of a graphical user interface; all interactions occur via the terminal. This makes it an excellent choice for users comfortable with command line operations and those using resource-constrained environments.
- MicroQuizMaster: As the lightest version of all QuizMasters, MicroQuizMaster is a mere 8 KB in size. Unlike QuizMasterTerminal, it does not include any example quizzes, focusing instead on ultra-lightweight functionality for users with the lowest-specification devices. It is particularly aimed at Windows users or those seeking a no-frills experience with minimal resource consumption.
- QuizMasterPaper offers a printable version of quizzes that can be used in offline or classroom settings, given in either
PDF
or TXT
format. Unlike the other repositories, there is no quiz game but the quizcreator can still read the json format present in other repos.
- Currently still in the early stages of development, QuizMaster-web aims to bring the QuizMaster experience to web browsers. This version is expected to provide a more versatile and accessible web-based application of the QuizMaster app, allowing users to engage with quizzes directly in their browsers without requiring any downloads or installations.
Each version of QuizMaster caters to specific needs and environments, ensuring that users can find an appropriate solution that matches their capabilities and preferences.
