As a mathematics teacher, I constantly find amazing interactive apps and simulations online, but I always struggled to integrate them into a live lesson in a structured and measurable way. I built `fireClass` to solve my own problem.
It's a platform that "wraps" any web content with a real-time classroom infrastructure. With one click from my PowerPoint, I can send an app to all my students and get tools for live polling, AI-powered analysis of their answers, and communication channels.
A few key aspects:
* *The Pedagogy:* It's built around a "Two-Loop Feedback System," using AI to give me a real-time snapshot of student understanding, and a full summary report at the end of the lesson.
* *The Tech:* It's Vanilla JS with a Firebase backend (using Cloud Functions for secure operations). Student access is friction-free with session-based IDs, so no student accounts are needed.
* *The Testing:* The platform is validated by a suite of Playwright end-to-end tests that simulate multi-user classroom scenarios to ensure reliability.
