SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires json, zipfile, os, uuid, pathlib, datetime, shutil, dataclasses, typing, re, requests, subprocess, sys, asyncio, random, pdfminer.six, puppeteer-core, zip-lib, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of interactive H5P content, eliminating the need for manual design in the H5P editor and enabling rapid generation of educational materials.

Core Features & Use Cases

Programmatic H5P Creation: Generate 16 different H5P content types (quizzes, flashcards, drag-and-drop, interactive books, etc.) directly from Python code.
Container Types: Combine multiple H5P elements into structured containers like Columns, Question Sets, Course Presentations, and Interactive Books.
Branding & Styling: Apply custom branding (like BS:WI design) and visual styles to H5P outputs.
Use Case: A teacher needs to create 50 unique quiz variations for a lesson. Instead of using the H5P editor 50 times, they can write a Python script to generate all variations automatically, ensuring consistency and saving significant time.

Quick Start

Use the h5p-generator skill to create a true/false quiz about Python basics.
