Inspiration
We've all heard of professors having a hard time making assignments and homework for students efficiently. Similarly, students need access to extra practice problems on the topics they're learning about to prepare for exams and the like.
What it does
Our website provides a widely intuitive experience to our users by generating homework problems based on their prompts in a printable PDF format using LaTeX; a document formatter primarily used in mathematics and the sciences.
How we built it
Using react with typescript, we were able to implement Google Gemini's API to generate practice problems and converted its output into LaTeX and a printable and intuitive format.
Challenges we ran into
Our main challenge was trying to implement the conversion of Gemini's output into LaTeX by cleverly prompt engineering to get it in the right format to be fairly reliable each time.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We've successfully created a product that is very user-friendly and useful for the average person.
What we learned
We learned a lot about react and API implementation in typescript and some of its limitations as well.
What's next for ProbleMatic
In the future, we would like to implement a feature that will take inspiration from a course's textbook and design problems based on certain topics from the book itself.
