The Web Standard export from Knowbly is an export that is ready to be served as a website.
(Technically speaking: The package consists of JSON data encapsulated in HTML. It operates by rendering the JSON data as HTML when opened in current internet browsers such as Chrome, and it is functionally driven by Javascript to exhibit course behavior and interact with learners.)
Exporting Web Standard
To export to a Web Standard package, first locate the desired course your Course dashboard. Select the Publish option from the “Options” menu using the three-dot ellipses in the upper-right corner of the course as shown in the illustration below.
After selecting the Publish option, the following screen is displayed. Select the Web Standard Format, then Publish.
When the Web Standard package has been built, an email will be sent to your account email address with a link to the published package for download.
Web Standard File Structure
Knowbly Web Standard export package consists of
- an index.html file which drives the export behavior,
- an “assets” folder which contains images specific to the WS export, and
- a “static” folder which contains css, javascript and font resources specific to the WS export.
Test it out
You can easily preview the HTML course on your local environment by unzipping the package and double-clicking on index.html. (This will open the course in your local browser as if it was being served over the web.)
Hosting a Web Standard Course
Web Standard packages may be hosted and accessed as any other website can be. The “home” file is index.html, and this is the HTML file that should be pointed to by your web service software to open initially. Index.html drives all further course behaviors.
A description of setting up a web server, such as Apache, is beyond the scope of this document. However, there are many free resources on the internet to help teach the basics of hosting a website. Please contact our support team if you need further guidance here.
