Project Summary

InterviewPlate is a web application tailored for users preparing for interviews, focusing specifically on theoretical questions rather than coding problems. The platform enables users to practice and evaluate their understanding of core concepts across various domains such as programming, databases, operating systems, and networking. With features like question browsing, automatic scoring, and user dashboards, InterviewPlate aims to enhance the interview preparation experience by providing a comprehensive tool similar to existing platforms like LeetCode but with a focus on theory-based inquiries.

Project Module Description

• User Authentication: Users can sign in or register to save their progress and preferences.
• Theory Question Browser: Users can search and filter through a collection of theoretical questions.
• Question Cards: Each question is displayed in a card format, showing relevant information and allowing for interaction.
• Answer Evaluation System: Automatically scores user responses and provides feedback.
• Admin Panel: For managing users and questions, accessible only to users with admin roles.
