Journey to SQL Master

An SQL practice platform powered by knowledge-graph gamification and adaptive question generation

2026.07 - 2026.08

Overview

An SQL practice platform built on a knowledge-graph lighting-up mechanism and an adaptive question-generation algorithm. It comes with a 58-question practice bank (basic / advanced multiple-choice) plus a 42-question exam bank (classic Nowcoder-style SQL fill-in-the-blank questions), covering syntax fundamentals, joins, subqueries, aggregation, window functions, and more. Training progress is visualized through the knowledge graph.

Key Features

  • Three-level knowledge-graph lighting: knowledge points organized as leaf / branch / root; answering a question correctly lights up the node, visualizing progress
  • Adaptive question generation: each round serves a 5-question sequence of "3 multiple-choice + 2 fill-in-the-blank"; cumulative correct answers across practice pools light up nodes (idempotent persistence)
  • SQL judging engine: SQL normalization, read-only single-statement validation, sandboxed execution, and result-set comparison
  • Complete learning loop: level diagnosis → adaptive practice → mistake collection → graph lighting → advanced topic selection
  • Account system: registration / login / GitHub OAuth2 one-click sign-in (optional) / session management / admin panel
  • Offline deployment: framework-free frontend with localized chart assets; one-click launcher auto-detects Python and starts the service

Tech Stack

  • Backend: Python / Flask / SQLite
  • Frontend: vanilla HTML / CSS / JS, ECharts (localized assets)
  • Judging: in-house SQL normalization + sandboxed execution and comparison
  • Testing: pytest (144 cases all green)

Highlights

  • 58-question practice bank + 42 Nowcoder-style exam questions across 29 knowledge tags
  • In-house SQL judging engine: normalization, single-statement validation, sandboxed execution, result-set comparison
  • Full question bank backed up under data/ for external review and rebuilding
