What this site is
Everything here runs in the browser, for free, with nothing to install. It's made up of four kinds of things:
- Classroom games. Hype Cycle Exchange is a live stock market game for a whole class, and Boxed is competition math practice with real AMC 10 and AIME problems.
- Study tools. Docket turns Canvas assignments and your calendar into a day-by-day study plan, and Prompted keeps college supplemental essays, word limits and deadlines in one place.
- Engineering projects. 3D workbenches for vehicles designed end to end: a road car that can fly, and a radar satellite.
- Guides that explain how to get the most out of each tool, listed below.
Who makes it
I'm Arjun, a student who builds things for the web. This site collects the games, study tools and engineering projects I've made, and I keep adding to it and updating it. Other students contribute too: they send changes as pull requests, which I review before anything goes live.
How it's built
Every page is written by hand in plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with no framework and no build step. The live multiplayer games use Google Firebase so that players in the same room can see each other's moves. The study tools don't use a server at all: what you type is saved only in your own browser. Problems in Boxed come from the American Mathematics Competitions (© Mathematical Association of America) and load from the AoPS Wiki while you play; everything else, including the writing on these pages, is original.

Ads and privacy
Some game pages show ads from Google AdSense, which help pay for the site. The study tools have no ads. The privacy policy explains what data the site uses and how.
