## 📖 Introduction

**NoteOverflow** is a specialized platform built exclusively for **Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) AS and A-Level students**. Designed to streamline exam preparation, NoteOverflow helps students organize topical questions by subject, year, paper type, and season. With **AI-powered semantic search**, powerful PDF annotation tools, and exportable PDFs, it transforms how students prepare for their Cambridge exams by making past papers interactive and accessible.

## ✨ Features

NoteOverflow is packed with features tailored for Cambridge AS and A-Level exam preparation:

- **📚 Topical Question Browser**: Filter and browse past paper questions by curriculum (IGCSE/A-Level), subject, topic, year, paper type (P1, P2, P3, etc.), and season (Summer/Winter/Spring).

- **🖍️ PDF Annotation Tools**: Annotate question papers and mark schemes directly in your browser using PDFTron WebViewer. Highlight, draw, and add comments to your practice papers. Your annotations are automatically saved and synced across devices, so you can pick up right where you left off.

- **🧮 Built-in Desmos Calculator**: Access a fully-featured Desmos graphing calculator directly within the platform. Solve mathematical problems, plot functions, and visualize data without switching between applications—perfect for mathematics and science subjects.

- **🔗 Smart Sharing & QR Codes**: Share individual questions and custom search filters with classmates using shareable links or QR codes. Scan QR codes to instantly access shared questions and filters.

- **🧠 AI-Powered Semantic Search**: Search for questions using natural language or by uploading an image. NoteOverflow uses advanced vector embeddings to understand the context of your query, allowing you to find specific questions even if you don't know the exact wording.

- **🔍 Past Paper Search**: Quickly find specific past papers using the intelligent search navigator. Enter a quick paper code (e.g., 9702/23/O/N/22) for instant access, or use manual filters to browse by curriculum, subject, paper type, variant, and season.

- **🔖 Smart Bookmarking and progress tracking**: Create custom bookmark lists to organize questions by topic, difficulty, or revision priority. And mark questions as completed and track your progress.
