MongoDB collection to Zod schema CLI tool

Lennart

Problem: polluted data in the database causes bugs which are sometimes hard to detect and fix. Moving the collections to the 2.0 backend is a tedious process because we have missing, partial or incorrect data models in the 1.0.

Solution: a CLI tool that iterates over all the documents in a MongoDB collection and generates a Zod schema based on the actual data. Might even be open-sourced and added to https://github.com/colinhacks/zod?tab=readme-ov-file#x-to-zod for exposure and eternal fame.

Challenges to solve:

• How to serialize a Zod schema to a TS file with sensible schema names?

• How to detect the difference between a regular string field and an enum value?

• How to differentiate between multiple schemas within the same collection? For example, the settings collection.

AI-tomated lesson creator based on our lesson library

Daan

Situation

• We have an amazing amount of lessons in our library

• Yet it's quite of a hassle to find the right one

• We see that teachers more and more look for curriculum-related learning goals/objectives

• And we currently run an experiment to find proof

Experiment

Still a challenge for teachers

The time is now

• We have access to all kinds of technology nowadays...

• We have a huge amount of content in our library...

• We have clever colleagues...

Idea

Create a full lesson on learning goal xyz (to be defined) based on lessons available in our lesson library content, combined with some extra magic (AI, other technology, the minds of clever colleague(s)).

Preferences:

Lesson should entail more detail than Maia currently gives

Reuse slides/content that is already available
