Project Overview

QuizForge is a frontend-based quiz creation and quiz management application developed using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The project allows users to create custom quizzes, add multiple-choice questions, assign points, provide explanations, play quizzes and review detailed results after completion.

The application stores all quiz information inside the browser using Local Storage, allowing quizzes to remain available even after refreshing the page. The project focuses on demonstrating strong JavaScript concepts such as objects, arrays, dynamic DOM manipulation, event handling, local storage management and application workflow.

QuizForge has been designed with a modern dark user interface, responsive layouts and a modular file structure, making it suitable as a portfolio project while also serving as a practical learning resource for frontend web development.
