CSESoc Learn has its own design system with components + tokens. The Figma file is here.

For more details, see the relevant wiki page.

• Support for a wide variety of content types via Contentlayer
• Beautiful UI/UX inspired by Medium and technical sites
• Spotlight-style search via Stork
• Ergonomic content creation workflow powered by MDX
• Convenient content sorting and filtering options

CSESoc is where students gather to socialise and extend their technical knowledge outside the classroom. Educational content has previously been delivered via workshops. However, this limits people who're uncomfortable with holding workshops, or want to contribute in other formats, from contributing.

CSESoc Learn empowers students from various backgrounds to contribute to the wider CSE community by:

• opening up new formats of contributing such as articles, tutorials and videos
• providing an ergonomic content creation experience, allowing creators to focus on what they do best

CSESoc Learn also focuses strongly on delightful UI/UX, driving engagement and raising the bar for learning experiences at CSESoc.

Prettier and StandardJS are used together for formatting and linting. They're configured in the repo.

For more details, see the relevant wiki page.

The Learning Platform has a standard format for publishing course revision materials. It assumes that a course revision campaign consists of a set of exercises that can be written in markdown.

In this course-revision folder observe that there are folders likes 1511-23T3 with mdx files inside. There is also a corresponding 1511-23T3.mdx file next to the folder of the same name.

When you create a new course revision campaign, you must provide the following:

• An mdx file course-revision/.mdx which contains some info about this course revision campaign and how to get set up for the exercises (e.g. downloading some starter code). The should be replaced with the name of the course offering that this revision session is made for e.g. 1511-23T3 The fields you must provide in the yaml are:
  • title: Title of the course revision campaign (e.g. CSESoc COMP1511 Revision Practice Problems)
  • desc: Brief descriptoin of this course revision campaign (e.g. Practical coding exercises to help you prepare for your COMP1511 23T3 final exam)
  • course: (e.g. COMP1511) (Currently not used in the code)
  • offering: (e.g. 23T3) (Currently not used in the code)
• A folder course-revision/ which contains mdx files for each exercise. The fields you must provide in the yaml are:
  • title: Title of the exercise (e.g. BST Difference)
  • desc: Brief description of exercise (e.g. Find the mininum distance between any two numbers in a binary search tree)
  • class: Which course this exercise is for (eg. COMP2521)
  • difficulty: Difficult rating (1=easy, 2=medium, 3=hard) (e.g. 2)

Note: Both the .mdx and folder MUST share the exact same name in order to work (e.g. file 1511-23T3.mdx and folder 1511-23T3)

Once you have uploaded these files you can navigate to them at the url /course-revision (e.g. learn.csesoc.org.au/course-revision or localhost:3000/course-revision)
