Study Content

Path: /src/data

The study repository organizes ISC2 CC material into five certification domains. It also provides searchable terminology and curated external references for additional study.

Project	Description
domains.json	Defines the five ISC2 CC domains, their descriptions, coverage percentages, and 19 study topics.
questions.json	Contains 250 multiple-choice questions used by full, domain-focused, and practice sessions.
glossary.json	Provides 53 searchable security terms and abbreviations grouped by domain.
references.json	Lists eight official, community, video, and course resources with descriptions and external links.

Exam Simulation

Path: /src/pages

The exam hub offers several ways to practice the ISC2 CC syllabus, from a complete timed assessment to focused domain drills and untimed learning sessions.

Project	Description
ExamHub.tsx	Configures a 100-question, 120-minute full exam; a 20-question, 30-minute domain diagnostic; or a 25-question untimed practice session.
ExamSession.tsx	Randomizes questions, manages answers and flags, displays the timer, and submits an exam attempt.
ReviewerDomain.tsx	Presents detailed topic and question content for an individual certification domain.

Progress and Review

Path: /src/pages

Exam attempts are stored in the browser so learners can return to their results without a server-side account. Results include scaled scoring, pass status, domain breakdowns, flagged questions, and answer review.

Project	Description
ExamResults.tsx	Displays the 1,000-point scaled score, percentage, pass threshold, domain chart, exam details, and question review.
Home.tsx	Provides the preparation dashboard with exam details, domain coverage, recent activity, and aggregate attempt statistics.
Reviewer.tsx	Supports searching the five core modules and eight external resources by topic, term, description, or category.
Glossary.tsx	Filters 53 terminology entries by search query and security domain.

Application Shell

Path: /src

The application uses React Router for page navigation and a shared responsive layout for the home page, reviewer, exam simulator, and glossary.

Project	Description
App.tsx	Defines routes for the dashboard, reviewer, domain pages, exam flow, results, and glossary.
components/layout/Layout.tsx	Provides the shared page layout and nested route outlet.
components/layout/Navbar.tsx	Renders desktop and mobile navigation for the main application areas.
components/layout/Footer.tsx	Provides resource links, support links, and the independent-study disclaimer.
types/index.ts	Defines the TypeScript models used for domains, questions, exam configurations, and attempts.
index.css	Defines Tailwind CSS integration and application-specific visual styles.

Tools and Requirements

Tool	Version	Purpose
Node.js	20 or later recommended	Runs the development server and build tooling.
npm	Bundled with Node.js	Installs dependencies and runs project scripts.
React	19	Provides the component-based user interface.
Vite	8	Provides development, bundling, and preview commands.
TypeScript	6	Supplies static typing and project compilation.
Tailwind CSS	4	Provides utility styling and responsive layout classes.

Exam attempts and progress statistics are stored in localStorage; no backend or account service is required.
