# Migrated IIT JEE notes to Vuepress Tech
14 March 2021
# Background
Last year, Unacademy discontinued the free recording lectures
features on their platform. This troubled me as i was regularly using this to upload my new lessons on Unacademy. Also, I see they already started to hide free videos from their website leading to less of my content reach to new students.
# Caveats
Hence I decided to create IIT JEE Notes by Ayush P Gupta (opens new window) to showcase my teaching on my mobile application. With app I also launched the web version using flutter web
which didn't meet expectations as it lagged user experience and gave more of the mobile app feel on the website. Due to a lack of resources and knowledge, I was unable to port a web version of it.
# Migration
Today, after one year, I decided why not use Vuepress (opens new window) for the website. Vuepress is a great choice as it's a type of ready mix for a static website.
I wrote a python script that automatically extracts video data from the database and creates respective markdown
files of every course.
And guess what? The result was fantastic. My website was up in less than 2 hrs, right from setup to publish.
