scaffold-exercises

Exercise scaffolds are generated by creating a structured directory layout with required subfolders for problems, solutions, and explainers. This bootstraps a skeletal exercise hierarchy with non-empty readmes, ready for immediate content and code insertion.

Course structures fail linting when exercise stubs lack required YAML frontmatter or non-empty readmes. Enforcing lint-ready stubs with mandatory name and description entries ensures generated section templates pass validation checks across all exercises.

Organizing educational exercise variants is best handled by applying scalable scaffolds that enforce consistent directory layouts across sections. This standardizes section templates and exercise variants, ensuring structural uniformity throughout course authoring workflows.

Yes, YAML frontmatter is required in exercise stubs. The scaffold enforces a mandatory YAML frontmatter entry containing both name and description fields to ensure each generated exercise passes linting checks and meets course structure requirements.

Yes, you can include scripts and references when scaffolding course templates. The generated exercise structures support optional scripts, references, and assets, enabling on-demand execution and rich references alongside the core problem and solution directories.
