Thank you…

THE STEPS  
STEP-BY-STEP: BUILDING THE APP IN GLIDE

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 1: Upload Google Sheet to Glide**

1. Go to [https://www.glideapps.com](https://www.glideapps.com)
2. Click **“New App”**
3. Choose **“Google Sheets”**
4. Upload the `Grade12_Exam_Revision_App_Template.xlsx` to Google Drive and link it
5. Select **“Users” sheet** as the source for sign-in

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 2: Enable User Sign-in**

1. Click **“Settings”** → **Privacy**
2. Select: **Public with Email**
3. Enable: **User Profiles**
4. Choose the **Users** sheet as the User Profile sheet
5. Map:

- Name → Full Name
- Email → Email
- Subscription → Subscription
- Subjects → Subjects Entitled

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 3: Create the Home Page Layout**

- In Glide, this is the **main screen after login**.

**Display:**

- **Details layout** → show:
  - Student Full Name, School, Province (use text components)
  - Inline List: “Subjects Entitled”

**How to show subjects:**

- Create a **Relation column** in the “Users” sheet that links `Subjects Entitled` to the `Subject Name` in `Subjects` sheet.
- Use an **Inline List** from that relation (filter by user login).

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 4: Subject Interface (on subject click)**

When a student taps on a subject:

- Create a new screen showing:
  - Filters: **By Year** , **Unit** , **Topic** , **AI Generated**
    - Use **Choice components** (linked to the `Questions` sheet)

**Below the filters:**

- Add a **“Start Quiz” button**
  - Action: Link to screen → Filter questions by subject + chosen year/unit/topic
  - Show 30 questions one by one

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 5: Question Interface (Quiz View)**

You will create a custom quiz screen:

- Use a **form or custom action flow** to:
  - Show question text
  - 4 Multiple Choice options (A–D)
  - Submit answer → store in `Responses` sheet
  - After 30 questions → show score + feedback

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 6: Result Summary Screen**

After the quiz:

- Create a screen that pulls:
  - Number of Correct vs Incorrect
  - Link to view answers + explanations

- Use:
  - **Bar Chart** or **Pie Chart** from `Responses` and `Analytics` sheet
  - Show per-topic accuracy, if desired

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 7: Offline Mode**

- Use a tab or visibility rule to show `OfflineQuestions` sheet
- Display a **static list of 30 questions** (answers only, no solution)

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 8: Timed Quiz Mode**

- Use Glide’s built-in **Timer/Date columns** :
  - When quiz starts, capture start time
  - On submit, capture end time
  - Calculate duration in the `Responses` or `Analytics` sheet

- Show **“Time Taken”** on result screen

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 9: Performance Dashboard**

- Create a separate **“Analytics” tab**
- Use charts:
  - Pie Chart: Correct vs Incorrect
  - Bar Graph: Accuracy by topic
  - Line Chart: Progress over time (group by timestamp)

* * *

### 🔹 **Step 10: Subscription Control (Free vs Subscribed)**

Use **visibility rules** :

- If `Subscription = Free`, limit:
  - Number of subjects
  - Hide AI-generated option
  - Lock full solutions

- If `Subscription = Subscribed`, unlock all
