Quark - Idea List

Quark powered by OpenGenus Foundation

Major tasks we are focussing on are:

• Develop a framework to answer instant code queries based on data from StackOverflow. While coding, people encounter the same basic issues on multiple occasions. The proposal is to store crowd-sourced data from StackOverflow, so, that Quark can answer a wide range of queries. Being limited by memory, we can store limited information but with efficient answering strategy, most of the queries can be answered. This should, also, provide concise information for a particular query. For instance, if a user searches machine learning, then irrespective of the search results, a concise information must be presented to the user. This will enhance user experience and learning.

• Create an offline framework to solve problems offline. The basic idea is to provide an offline version of dynamic sites like ProjectEuler by linking Quark with the local working environment. This will enable us to port online free course (from sites like Coursera) into offline version as a part of Quark which will be a great boost in the learning experience.

• Create a framework for integrating offline apps such as a calculator, a stopwatch, timezone converter and many others with the search results.

• Motivation, enjoyment and relaxation are crucial for a successful learning experience. In order to achieve this, the app/ extension must work in the background while online to develop a mental mapping of the user in order to understand the mental state. Accordingly, the search results while offline will be tuned to make the mental state of the user better.
