BrainPatch is an intelligent, LLM-powered learning platform that creates personalised courses based on individual knowledge gaps and learning needs. By leveraging advanced assessment techniques and adaptive content generation, BrainPatch bridges the gap between where learners are and where they want to be.
Traditional learning platforms use a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn't account for individual knowledge levels or learning gaps. Learners often:
- Waste time on concepts they already understand
- Miss foundational knowledge that prevents deeper understanding
- Lack personalised pathways that adapt to their specific needs
- Face generic courses that don't align with their current competency level
BrainPatch employs intelligent assessment and adaptive course generation to create truly personalised learning experiences:
- Dynamic Knowledge Assessment: Multi-layered evaluation system that quickly identifies knowledge gaps
- Intelligent Course Construction: LLM-powered curriculum generation tailored to individual needs
- Adaptive Learning Modules: Content that adjusts based on real-time performance and understanding
- Targeted Gap Filling: Focus on areas where learners need the most improvement
- Rapid, high-level multiple-choice questionnaires
- Smart question selection based on previous responses
- Comprehensive knowledge mapping across topic domains
- Efficient evaluation that respects user time
- LLM-driven curriculum creation based on assessment results
- Dynamic topic selection focusing on knowledge gaps
- Modular course structure allowing for flexible learning paths
- Real-time course adjustment based on progress
- In-depth assessment within each course module
- Content difficulty adjustment based on user responses
- Progressive revelation of concepts building on confirmed knowledge
- Continuous refinement of learning path
- Software developers seeking to improve specific technical skills
- Career changers transitioning into technology roles
- Students supplementing formal education
- Professionals requiring upskilling in new technologies
ReactJS developers and learners, providing a focused scope for initial validation and iteration.

Based on proven concepts in adaptive learning and personalised education, with inspiration from successful knowledge assessment platforms. The approach addresses the fundamental inefficiency in traditional learning: the mismatch between course content and individual knowledge levels.
- In-browser LLM performance limitations on lower-end devices
- LLM accuracy and consistency across different providers (local vs cloud)
- Scalability of personalised content creation with resource constraints
- Browser compatibility for WebAssembly/WebGPU LLM execution
- Integration complexity with learning management systems
- User adoption of AI-driven learning platforms
- Competition from established educational technology providers
- Maintaining engagement with adaptive content
- Iterative development with continuous user feedback
- Strong focus on MVP validation before expansion
- Partnership opportunities with educational institutions
- Clear differentiation through personalisation capabilities
The application is automatically deployed to GitHub Pages on every push to the main branch:
- Quality Gates: All tests, linting, security audits, and builds must pass
- Static Export: Next.js generates optimized static files for deployment
- GitHub Pages: Automatic deployment using GitHub Actions with custom domain support
- CDN Distribution: Global content delivery through GitHub's infrastructure
For local testing of the production build:
npm run build # Generate static export npx serve out # Serve locally on http://localhost:3000npm run dev # Development server npm test # Run tests npm run coverage # Generate coverage report npm run lint # Check code quality npm run build # Production buildBrainPatch represents a significant opportunity to revolutionise personalised learning by eliminating the inefficiencies of traditional educational approaches. By focusing on individual knowledge gaps and adaptive course generation, the platform can deliver unprecedented learning efficiency and user satisfaction.
The initial focus on ReactJS provides a contained environment for validation and iteration, with clear expansion opportunities across the broader technology education market.
