Transform dense lecture text into engaging analogies, clear diagrams, and short explainer videos using AI. Now powered by Azure + Big Data to learn from learners and automatically improve teaching quality.

SlideSage now features a closed feedback loop powered by Microsoft Azure:

Teach → Observe → Stream → Analyze → Adapt → Teach Better

The Innovation: Every student interaction (quiz scores, video engagement, feedback) streams to Azure Event Hubs, gets analyzed by Azure Synapse, and Azure OpenAI generates adaptive teaching strategies. The result? Explanations that improve automatically with every learner.

See QUICK_START.md for step-by-step Azure setup.

pnpm install

Copy .env.example to .env.local and configure:

# Groq API (for content generation)
GROQ_API_KEY=your_groq_api_key

# Azure Event Hubs (required)
AZURE_EVENTHUB_CONNECTION_STRING=your_connection_string
AZURE_EVENTHUB_NAME=slidesage-learning-events

# Azure OpenAI (required for adaptive logic)
AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT=https://your-resource.openai.azure.com/
AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key
AZURE_OPENAI_DEPLOYMENT_NAME=gpt-4o

pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000

Visit http://localhost:3000/api/telemetry to check status.

1. Student Learns: Uses SlideSage to understand a concept
2. Events Stream: Quiz scores, video engagement, feedback → Azure Event Hubs
3. Data Stored: Stream Analytics → Data Lake Gen2 (partitioned by date/concept)
4. Analytics Run: Synapse SQL queries identify:
   • Concept difficulty scores
   • Teaching format effectiveness
   • Video drop-off points
   • Regeneration success rates
5. AI Adapts: Azure OpenAI generates adaptive strategies:
   • Simplify analogies
   • Add more steps to diagrams
   • Slow down video pacing
   • Adjust quiz difficulty
6. Better Teaching: Next student gets improved, personalized explanation

Before Azure Integration:

• Average quiz score: 65%
• Video completion: 60%
• Negative feedback: 35%

After 10 students + Azure analysis:

• Insight: "Too abstract, needs everyday analogies"
• Azure OpenAI recommendation: "Use sports team rankings analogy, add 2 intermediate steps"
• Groq generates new content with Azure insights

Result for next student:

• Average quiz score: 82% ↑
• Video completion: 91% ↑
• Positive feedback: 78% ↑

See synapse-queries.sql for:

• Concept difficulty scoring
• Teaching format effectiveness
• Video engagement analysis
• Regeneration success tracking
• Real-time learning dashboard
• AI-ready adaptive insights

"SlideSage learns from learners and improves teaching automatically using Azure. Every quiz, every video pause, every feedback click streams to Azure Event Hubs. Azure Synapse Analytics identifies what's difficult. Azure OpenAI adapts the teaching. The next student gets a better explanation automatically—without manual intervention."

1. Show student struggling with concept (low quiz score, negative feedback)
2. Show Azure Event Hubs receiving events in real-time
3. Show Synapse Analytics identifying difficulty patterns
4. Show regenerated content with Azure OpenAI insights
5. Show improved metrics for next student
