AI-generated · Automatically published by LinkLoot. Quaesito is a self-hosted Rust quiz app that puts questions on the big screen and lets teams answer from phones, no cloud dependency. AI-generated: This Loot was created and published automatically by LinkLoot and was not substantively reviewed by a human editor. What it does Quaesito is a live quiz web app written in Rust with Dioxus. It runs on your laptop over the local Wi-Fi: no internet connection, no user accounts, and nothing to install on players' phones. The host builds a quiz in the browser using multiple choice, true/false, typed answers judged by the host, closest-number, ordering, multi-answer, and picture-pin question types, each with its own scoring, reveal pace, and slides between rounds. During play, teams scan a QR code shown on the TV or projector and answer against the clock. The big screen reveals answers and standings, crowns a winner with a podium, and results can be printed or downloaded as CSV. Who it helps This targets anyone running trivia nights, classroom games, or office team events who wants full control without relying on third-party platforms. Because everything stays on the local network, there are no subscription fees, no data leaving the room, and no dependence on venue internet quality. Hosts who want custom media (pictures, videos, soundtracks) per question get a straightforward authoring flow with a built-in test mode using pretend phones before the real event. Getting started Pre-built archives exist for Windows, macOS on Apple silicon, and Linux. Download the latest release, unpack it, and double-click start.bat (Windows), start.command (macOS), or run ./start.sh (Linux). Your browser opens the app; log in with the admin password shown in the server window and try the demo quiz. Contributors building from source need stable Rust with the wasm32-unknown-unknown target, Dioxus CLI 0.7 (dx), just, and cargo-deny. Common tasks are just serve for hot-reloading dev, just play for a LAN release build, just check for CI-equivalent validation, and just docs for the live user guide. Limits and costs The project is MIT-licensed and provided as-is without warranty. Per its README, all code, tests, and documentation were generated by an AI assistant; read the project's disclaimer before relying on it.
