    He stopped me and asked, how much AI have you used ?
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleSach % + kahan + kaise verify + kya seekha. Report se contradict mat.

    Boilerplate vs business logic. Examiner process poochta. 'Sab ChatGPT' red flag.

    Verify: docs, run, edge case. Seekha: CORS, JWT exp, beat vs worker.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Project example: Jo number form/PDF mein hai wahi. Example file jo AI se start kiya, khud debug kiya.

    Viva tipExaminer 'kya seekha / kaise check kiya' pe marks. 'Sab ChatGPT' red flag. Jo khud debug kiya woh story ready rakho.

    Reasoning for my frontend design. - all dashboards using onMounted hook.
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleonMounted = Composition API ka mounted. setup() ke andar call.

    Options API: mounted() method. Mix mat. Vue 3 dono chalte.

    Lifecycle = component ki zindagi: created (instance, DOM nahi) → mounted/onMounted (DOM ready — fetch, Chart.js yahi) → updated → unmounted (clearInterval).

    Dashboard API created mein isliye nahi ki $el/canvas missing ho sakta. Composition API: onMounted(() => {}) setup ke andar. Options: mounted() method. Mix mat.

    Examiner 'konsa hook use kiya' — related .vue kholo, line padh ke bolo.

    Example

    import { onMounted, ref } from 'vue'
    const items = ref([])
    onMounted(async () => {
      items.value = await (await fetch('/api/items')).json()
    })

    Celery configuration and how redis cache and celery are integrated with backend server.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleRedis box hai, Celery us box se kaam uthane wala worker hai — same cheez nahi.

    Redis: store (cache keys) + queue (broker lists).
    Celery: Python library jo tasks define karti hai, .delay() se queue mein daalti hai, worker execute karta hai.

    Dono localhost pe ho sakte hain. Alag Redis DB index use karo. Redis band = cache miss + Celery stuck.

    Example

    Celery: broker_url='redis://localhost:6379/0'
    Cache:  CACHE_REDIS_URL='redis://localhost:6379/1'

    Project example: export_csv.delay(user_id) Flask se. Worker Redis se task uthata hai, CSV+email. Cache alag keys venues.

    Viva tipAgar possible ho to cache db=1, broker db=0 — keys mix nahi hoti.

    How is user Authentication performed ? + RBAC demo.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleRBAC = Role Based Access Control. Roles (admin/user) se permissions milti hain, har user pe alag list nahi.

    Example

    if current_user.role != 'admin':
        flash('Not allowed')
        return redirect(url_for('user.home'))

    ->how do i show a list of students(he wants to know about how i used for loops if iam passing a list of student objects etc for html/jinja- asked me to show it in a notepad)
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleJinja for loop list render karta hai. loop.index, else branch empty list pe.

    Example

    {% for u in users %}
      <tr><td>{{ loop.index }}</td><td>{{ u.email }}</td></tr>
    {% endfor %}

    SimpleServer-Sent Events: server → browser one-way stream (text/event-stream). WebSocket full duplex hai; SSE simpler notifications ke liye.

    Example

    # client
    const es = new EventSource('/stream');
    es.onmessage = (e) => console.log(e.data);

    ->put vs patch vs post
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimplePOST naya janam (har baar naya id). PUT poori photo replace. PATCH sticker chipkao.

    POST create, not idempotent. PUT full update, idempotent. PATCH partial.

    POST ki jagah PUT se REST semantics toot. GET typically no body.

    CRUD map: POST create, GET read, PUT/PATCH update, DELETE delete.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Example

    POST /api/venues
    PUT  /api/venues/1   {all fields}
    PATCH /api/venues/1 {only name}

    Project example: POST /api/venues create. PUT /venues/1 saari fields. PATCH sirf name.

Advice: be through with you project especially the variables used and how they are passed etc the examiner is chill(even though he asks a lot of questions)

        session['user_id'] = user.id
    
    # authz

    SimpleMAD1 mein usually session-based auth: login pe session['user_id'], har request pe verify.

    Example

    session['user_id'] = user.id
    uid = session.get('user_id')
    user = User.query.get(uid)

    Viva tipSECRET_KEY set karo warna session insecure. logout pe session.clear().

    Where did you implement caching and redis ? What is caching?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    Example

    @cache.cached(timeout=50, query_string=True)
    @app.route('/api/shows')
    def shows():
        return jsonify([s.serialize() for s in Show.query.all()])

    Project example: Admin dashboard counts / venues list cache. Create/update/delete ke baad cache.delete('venues').

    Viva tipprint('DB queried') function ke andar laga ke miss/hit demo karo — hit pe print nahi chalega.

    In the Frontend code, he asked me async ?, await?, what is Const? Why not we use let ?then mounted()( since it is there in my Frontend code so he asked this question)
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleonMounted = Composition API ka mounted. setup() ke andar call.

    Options API: mounted() method. Mix mat. Vue 3 dono chalte.

    Lifecycle = component ki zindagi: created (instance, DOM nahi) → mounted/onMounted (DOM ready — fetch, Chart.js yahi) → updated → unmounted (clearInterval).

    Dashboard API created mein isliye nahi ki $el/canvas missing ho sakta. Composition API: onMounted(() => {}) setup ke andar. Options: mounted() method. Mix mat.

    Examiner 'konsa hook use kiya' — related .vue kholo, line padh ke bolo.

    Example

    import { onMounted, ref } from 'vue'
    const items = ref([])
    onMounted(async () => {
      items.value = await (await fetch('/api/items')).json()
    })

    Project example: script setup: onMounted(loadStats).
