Phase 9 — Capstone

Chapters 55, 56: Prove

Your role: Architect — "I can architect and deliver complete, production-grade systems"

Phase 9 is proof — not to an instructor, but to yourself. SmartNotes was guided: each phase told you what to build next. Now you build QuizForge, an AI-Powered Quiz Generator, entirely from scratch. Feed it any text and QuizForge generates quiz questions, tracks your scores, identifies weak topics, and adapts difficulty automatically. Every skill from every phase appears in a single new project. Nobody tells you what to build in each step — you drive the entire cycle from start to finish. You also develop the judgment to know when not to use AI, recognizing when manual coding is faster than prompting.
