Quex

Integrity without Compromise

A modern offline-first examination platform designed for schools, universities, and educational institutions. Quex simplifies the entire examination lifecycle—from exam creation and student management to secure exam delivery, automated grading, and performance analytics.

Built as a Progressive Web App (PWA), the platform continues to work even with unstable internet connections by storing answers locally and synchronizing them automatically once connectivity is restored.

🚀 Overview

Quex was created to address the biggest challenges of online examinations: unreliable internet connections, limited accessibility, weak anti-cheat systems, and complex user experiences.

The platform combines modern web technologies with a security-first architecture, allowing educational institutions to conduct reliable online assessments while providing a smooth experience for both teachers and students.

✨ Features

🔒 Secure Examination

Quex protects exam integrity through multiple built-in security mechanisms, including fullscreen enforcement, tab-switch detection, automatic violation tracking, secure student verification, session isolation, password hashing, and CSRF protection.

📶 Offline-First Experience

The platform continues operating even when the internet connection is interrupted by leveraging Service Workers, IndexedDB, and Background Sync, ensuring student progress is never lost.

♿ Accessibility

Accessibility is a core part of the platform, with support for keyboard navigation, screen readers, Text-to-Speech, RTL layouts, high-contrast themes, and bilingual Arabic & English exams.

📊 Administration & Analytics

Comprehensive dashboards allow administrators and teachers to manage exams, monitor students, generate access codes, import CSV files, and analyze detailed performance reports through interactive charts.
