Everything for a live game, on your infra

From the quiz builder to the projector, the leaderboard and the data export.

⚡

Real-time multiplayer

Socket.IO game engine with authoritative server timing. Players join a session by 6-digit PIN or QR code — from a handful to a few hundred.

🦄

Player avatars

Every player gets a unique, generated Multiavatar avatar — no upload, no account, instant identity on the leaderboard.

🖥️

Projector-ready

Bright, high-contrast light screens designed for the big screen. Separate projection and control windows, full-screen lobby, question, leaderboard and podium.

🧩

Quiz builder

Seven question types — single/multi choice, true-false, text, numeric, reorder and poll — with image & audio media and reusable quizzes.

🏆

Live scoring & podium

Time-weighted points with streak bonuses, a leaderboard between questions and a final podium. Manual or automatic pacing, pause & resume.

⭐

Player feedback

Players rate the quiz with stars and an optional comment at the end — and hosts get the aggregated ratings to see what landed.

💾

Answer capture

Optionally record every player's individual answers — for audit, certification or individual follow-up. Players are told when a session is recorded.

🔎

History & exploration

Browse archived sessions: per-question success rates, average times, and drill down into each player's score, streak and answer sheet.

📤

CSV export

Export overall session results and per-player answer sheets to CSV — ready for your spreadsheets, gradebooks or reporting.

🌍

Multilingual

Interface available in English, French, Spanish and Simplified Chinese. One language per instance, set in your configuration.

🏠

Self-hosted & private

Runs entirely on your own infrastructure with Docker. No SaaS, no third party, no ads. Players need no account; hosts can plug in OIDC when needed.

🎨

White-label

Rebrand the name, logo and CSS through an env var and a mounted folder — no rebuild. Make every instance look like yours.

Self-host in 2 minutes

Easiest — one container (app + database bundled), ideal on Docker Desktop:

docker run -p 18080:3000 -v quizdock:/data fchaussin/quizdock:standalone

# then open the app in your browser
open http://localhost:18080

Or, for production, the fchaussin/quizdock app image with your own Postgres / Redis via compose:

docker pull fchaussin/quizdock:latest
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/quizdock/quiz-dock/main/docker-compose.prod.yml
docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d

# then open the app in your browser
open http://localhost:18080

Prefer building from source? git clone the repo and run the same compose with --build. Rebrand and pick a language without rebuilding via APP_NAME / APP_LANG and a mounted branding/ folder.

How it works

1
Host creates a session

Build a quiz, hit present — QuizDock locks a server-side snapshot and shows a PIN.
2
Players join by PIN or QR

No account, no install. They pick a nickname and they are in the lobby instantly.
3
Play, score, review

Answer in real time, crown the podium, then explore results and export to CSV.
