PROJECTMCQ Practice Platform for Students
RATIONALENext.js + Supabase is the fastest path to a working product for a partial team — Supabase gives you auth, database, and storage out of the box with minimal backend boilerplate. Vercel deploys automatically and scales to micro user loads for free. This stack is well-documented, hiring-friendly, and avoids premature infrastructure complexity for a seed-stage MCQ product.

⚠ RISK FLAGS
!Scope creep risk: 'MCQ product' can mean many things (competitive exam prep, classroom quizzes, certification practice) — nail down the exact student persona and exam category before dev starts to avoid rebuilding core flows
!Partial team risk: if the missing role is a backend or fullstack developer, timeline will slip — Supabase mitigates this but someone must own the codebase end-to-end
!Content bootstrapping problem: the platform is worthless without quality MCQ content on day one — plan for at least 200-500 seeded questions before launch
!Seed budget is tight if UI design is included — use a component library (shadcn/ui or Chakra UI) to avoid custom design costs
!No monetization defined in MVP — validate willingness to pay early to avoid building a free product with no revenue path
