The Three Pillars of Coob Import
1. Full Course Import: Complete Learning Experiences in One Click
Imagine uploading a comprehensive course structure with just a single JSON file. That's exactly what Full Course Import enables:
{
"title": "JavaScript Fundamentals",
"description": "Master JavaScript from basics to advanced concepts",
"steps": [
{
"name": "Introduction to Variables",
"text": "Learning about JavaScript variables",
"type": "image",
"step_number": 1,
"content_components": [
{
"type": "text",
"sort_index": 1,
"input_data": {
"content": "## Variables in JavaScript\n\nVariables are containers for storing data values..."
}
},
{
"type": "single_choose",
"sort_index": 2,
"input_data": {
"question": "Which keyword is used to declare a variable in JavaScript?",
"options": [
{"text": "var", "isCorrect": true},
{"text": "variable", "isCorrect": false},
{"text": "let", "isCorrect": true},
{"text": "const", "isCorrect": true}
]
}
}
]
}
]
}
Perfect for:
- Course creators who design content offline
- Educational institutions migrating from other platforms
- Content teams working collaboratively
- Anyone wanting to backup and restore courses
2. Step-by-Step Additions: Expand Your Existing Courses
Already have a course running? No problem! The step import feature lets you seamlessly add new content to existing courses:
{
"name": "Advanced JavaScript Concepts",
"text": "Exploring closures and prototypes",
"type": "text",
"step_number": 5,
"content_components": [
{
"type": "code",
"sort_index": 1,
"input_data": {
"language": "javascript",
"code": "function createCounter() {\n let count = 0;\n return function() {\n return ++count;\n };\n}"
}
}
]
}
Ideal for:
- Expanding successful courses with new modules
- A/B testing different content approaches
- Adding seasonal or timely content updates
- Collaborative content development
3. AI-Powered Content Generation: The Future of Course Creation
This is where Coob truly shines! The platform's integration with AI language models creates a seamless workflow:
The AI-to-Course Pipeline
- Prompt the AI: "Create a course about Python data structures"
- AI Generates Structure: Using Coob's specialized YAML format
- Import Instantly: Paste the generated content into Coob
- Course Ready: Fully interactive course available immediately
YAML Format for AI Generation
Coob uses an optimized YAML structure that's both human-readable and AI-friendly:
t: "Python Data Structures Mastery"
d: "Learn Python's built-in data structures and their practical applications"
s:
- i: "Introduction to Lists"
c:
- t: "Lists are ordered collections of items in Python..."
- c: "python|my_list = [1, 2, 3, 'hello', True]"
- ss: "Which method adds an item to a list?|append()^|add()|insert()|push();append() adds items to the end of a list"
- fc: "List Method|append();Dictionary Key|Unique identifier;Tuple Property|Immutable"
- i: "Working with Dictionaries"
c:
- t: "Dictionaries store key-value pairs..."
- c: "python|person = {'name': 'Alice', 'age': 30}"
- m: "What stores key-value pairs?|Dictionary"

AI Integration: The Game Changer
Working with ChatGPT and Other Language Models
The real magic happens when you combine Coob's import feature with AI language models. Here's the complete workflow:
1. Prompt Engineering for Course Generation
Use this template with ChatGPT or similar models:
You are creating a course for coob.app, a Telegram-based learning platform.
Generate a course about [TOPIC] using this YAML format:
t: [Course Title]
d: [Course Description]
s:
- i: [Step Title]
c:
- t: [Text content in markdown]
- c: [language|code example]
- ss: [question|option1^|option2|option3;explanation]
- fc: [term|definition;term|definition]
Rules:
- Create 5-8 steps
- Include interactive elements in each step
- Use engaging, conversational tone
- Include practical examples
2. Advanced AI Workflows
Iterative Content Improvement:
Based on this existing course structure: [paste current content]
Add a new step about [specific topic] that:
- Builds on previous knowledge
- Includes hands-on exercises
- Prepares students for the next concept
Content Localization:
Translate this course to [target language] while:
- Maintaining the exact YAML structure
- Adapting examples to local context
- Keeping the same learning objectives
AI Best Practices for Coob Import
β Do:
- Use specific, detailed prompts
- Request YAML format explicitly
- Ask for interactive components
- Specify target audience and difficulty level
β Don't:
- Use vague prompts like "create a course"
- Mix different content formats in one request
- Ignore component formatting requirements
- Generate extremely long single components
Troubleshooting Common Import Issues
JSON Validation Errors
Problem: "Invalid JSON structure" error
Solution:
- Use a JSON validator (jsonlint.com)
- Check for missing commas, brackets, or quotes
- Ensure proper nesting structure
Problem: Missing required fields
Solution:
- Full course imports require
title
andsteps
- Step imports require
name
,type
, andstep_number
- Components need
type
,sort_index
, andinput_data
Content Format Issues
Problem: Components not rendering correctly
Solution:
- Verify component types against supported list
- Check input_data structure for each component type
- Ensure proper JSON escaping for special characters
Problem: Step numbering conflicts
Solution:
- Use sequential numbering starting from 1
- Check existing course for highest step number
- Allow Coob to auto-assign numbers if unsure
Performance Optimization
Large Course Imports:
- Break courses into smaller chunks (10-15 steps)
- Import core content first, add supplementary material later
- Monitor import logs for progress and errors
AI-Generated Content:
- Review AI output before importing
- Test with single steps before full courses
- Keep AI prompts focused and specific
Advanced Import Techniques
Batch Processing with Scripts
For power users, Coob's import API enables automated workflows:
// Example: Bulk import multiple courses
const courses = [
{ title: "Course 1", content: course1Data },
{ title: "Course 2", content: course2Data }
];
for (const course of courses) {
await fetch('/api/import', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify(course.content)
});
}
Template-Based Content Creation
Create reusable templates for consistent course structure:
{
"title": "{{COURSE_TITLE}}",
"description": "{{COURSE_DESCRIPTION}}",
"steps": [
{
"name": "Introduction",
"template": "intro_template",
"variables": {
"topic": "{{MAIN_TOPIC}}",
"difficulty": "{{DIFFICULTY_LEVEL}}"
}
}
]
}
