90 courses harvested from MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, and 12 more. 22 subject clusters. Tools that do one specific thing — grounded in how actual faculty at actual institutions actually teach.
Most study tools are generic: describe a topic and get a study guide. This is not that.
Everything here starts from a specific syllabus. Courses at MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, UT Austin, UNC Chapel Hill, the University of Washington, UW–Madison, and H-Net discussion networks contributed the source material. Vocabulary, frameworks, and tools were drawn from those syllabi directly — not from a general model of "what college is like." When a cluster on Causal Inference includes a difference-in-differences practice app, that concept appears because Berkeley and Stanford both teach it, in that language, in the courses we harvested.
The result is 22 subject clusters, each with 5 focused tools. A cluster on Algorithmic & Experimental Writing has an Oulipo constraint generator and a chance-based writing tool, built from SFPC and MIT OCW curricula. A cluster on Epidemiology & Study Design has study design drills and an outbreak investigation simulator grounded in Stanford and UNC public health courses. The tools are specific because the syllabi were specific.
The full corpus of 90 syllabi is browsable and filterable — by institution, domain, keyword. Every cluster page traces back to named courses at named institutions. The provenance is not decorative.
The tools are specific because the syllabi were specific.
Each cluster traces back to named courses from named institutions. Vocabulary and frameworks come from faculty who designed the courses, not from a general assumption about the subject.
Each tool does one thing: a DAG-building exercise, a study design drill, an Oulipo constraint generator, a causal methods quiz. Not a general assistant — a specific instrument for a specific concept.
Every live app is open in any browser, no account needed. Clone it into your Vibes DIY account to adapt it for your course or your students. Remix it to change what it does.
This is not an AI study helper. There is no "chat with your syllabus." There is no assistant answering questions or generating summaries on demand.
Each tool is a small app that does something specific and does it well. A study design drill presents a scenario and asks you to identify the study type, the confounders, the bias. An Oulipo constraint generator gives you a writing rule and a prompt. A causal inference methods quiz tests whether you can distinguish instrumental variables from regression discontinuity. These are instruments, not interfaces.
The tools were built with Vibes DIY from prompts grounded in the source syllabi. They are deployed as real software — not mockups, not prototypes. The humanities cluster tools are live now. For the STEM clusters, each tool page includes a "build this app →" prompt link: the same prompt the tool was designed around, ready to run in Vibes DIY. A statistics instructor can take the causal inference methods quiz prompt, build it, and adjust it for their own course vocabulary in an afternoon.
That is the intent: specific tools, real provenance, and enough access to the source that you can make something yours.
