Quiz_Game

My pet project creating small Quiz game. Tech used:

• JavaFX
• Jackson
• JUnit 5
• Appache commons

Overview

This project is a JavaFX-based quiz game application that allows users to play quizzes sourced either from the internet or from local JSON files. This project was created by me as a personal attempt to practice and hone various skills, including Java programming, JavaFX development, JUnit-based unit testing, JSON data manipulation, and the utilization of Apache Commons libraries. Additionally, it serves as a platform to showcase my ability to design user-friendly graphical user interfaces and effectively manage user preferences This project extends its gratitude to (Open Trivia Database)[https://opentdb.com] for providing the quiz data that makes this game possible.
