Quiz App Explanation

The front end code uses React components like App, Login, and Quiz to manage application structure and user interactions. Key hooks like useState and useEffect are used for state management and data fetching. The back end uses Express, MongoDB, and Mongoose to build APIs for authentication, registration, and retrieving quiz and user data from the database. It sets up models, middleware for authentication, and endpoints for login, fetching data, and updating scores.

Front End code explanation

1. App Component:
• De nition:
• The App component sets up the main structure of
the application, including routing using react-
router-dom.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the BrowserRouter, Route, and Routes
components to de ne navigation routes.
• Renders different components based on the URL
path.
2. Login Component:
• De nition:
• The Login component is responsible for handling user
login functionality and rendering the login page.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the useState hook to manage the state of
the username and password input elds.
• Uses the useNavigate hook from react-router-dom
to navigate between pages.
• Sends a login request to the server using the api
utility.
3. Quiz Component:
• De nition:
• The Quiz component manages the quiz
functionality, including fetching questions and
handling user responses.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the useState hook to manage the state of
quiz-related variables.
• Uses the useEffect hook to fetch quiz questions
from the server when the component mounts.

• Dynamically adjusts the dif culty level based on
user performance.
• Sends the user's quiz results to the server.
4. Register Component:
• De nition:
• The Register component handles user registration
and renders the registration page.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the useState hook to manage the state of
registration-related elds (username, password, lang).
• Uses the useNavigate hook to navigate between pages.
• Sends a registration request to the server using the api
utility.
5. UserPro le Component:
• De nition:
• The UserPro le component displays user
information and includes a modal for detailed user
data.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the useState hook to manage the state of
userPro le and isModalOpen.
• Uses the useEffect hook to fetch user pro le data
from the server.
• Displays user details and handles modal open/
close events.
6. Leaderboard Component:
• De nition:
• The Leaderboard component fetches and displays
a table of user scores.
• Use Case:
• Utilizes the useState hook to manage the state of
the leaderboard data.
• Uses the useEffect hook to fetch leaderboard data
from the server.
• Presents a table of usernames and corresponding
scores.

Internally Used Hooks:
• useState:
• Used in multiple components to manage local state
variables.
• Keeps track of input values, user data, and other dynamic
information.

• useEffect:
• Used to perform side effects, such as fetching data from
the server.
• Ensures that certain code runs after the component has
mounted.
• useNavigate:
• Used for programmatic navigation between pages.
• Enables navigation in response to user actions or API
responses.

These hooks and components collectively contribute to the
functionality and structure of the React application, providing state
management, navigation, and interaction with the backend API.

Back End Code Explanation


1. Express Setup:
• Modules Used:
• express, mongoose, body-parser, cors, bcrypt,
jsonwebtoken
• Purpose:
• Setting up an Express server with necessary middleware
for handling requests, parsing JSON, enabling CORS,
and interacting with MongoDB.
2. CORS Con guration:
• Purpose:
• Con guring Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) to
allow requests from a speci c origin (http://localhost:5173)
and handling CORS-related options.
3. MongoDB Connection:
• Module Used:
• mongoose
• Purpose:
• Connecting to a MongoDB database named
language_game running on localhost:27017.
4. Mongoose Models:
• Modules Used:
• User, Exercise, Leaderboard (Mongoose models)
• Purpose:
• De ning Mongoose models for the User, Exercise, and
Leaderboard collections to structure and interact with
data.
5. Authentication Middleware:
• Modules Used:
• jwt (JSON Web Token)
• Purpose:
• De ning middleware (authenticateToken) to verify the
presence and validity of JWT tokens in request headers.
6. Login Endpoint:
• Purpose:
• Handling user login requests (POST /api/login).
• Verifying the user's credentials and responding with a
JWT token upon successful authentication.
7. Registration Endpoint:
• Purpose:

• Handling user registration requests (POST /api/register).
• Hashing the user's password and saving the user details
to the database.
8. Finish Quiz Endpoint:
• Purpose:
• Handling requests to nish a quiz session (POST /api/
nish).
• Updating user progress and leaderboard based on the
quiz score.
9. Fetch Questions Endpoint:
• Purpose:
• Handling requests to fetch quiz questions for a user
(POST /api/questions).
10. Fetch Leaderboard Endpoint:
• Purpose:
• Handling requests to fetch and return leaderboard data
(GET /api/leaderboard).
11. Fetch User Pro le Endpoint:
• Purpose:
• Handling requests to fetch and return user pro le data
(POST /api/userpro le).
12. Server Listening:
• Purpose:
• Starting the Express server, listening on a speci ed port
(PORT), and logging a message upon successful server
startup.
This server-side code provides endpoints for user authentication,
registration, quiz handling, and data fetching. It connects to a
MongoDB database, utilizes middleware for authentication, and
employs various libraries for hashing passwords and token
generation. Mongoose models de ne the structure of data stored in
the MongoDB collections. The server exposes RESTful APIs for
interacting with user data, quiz questions, and leaderboard
information.
