Navigating Complexities in Power Pages: Seeking Guidance on Liquid and JavaScript Integration

I’m working on putting together a learining hub on Microsoft Power Pages, aiming to provide study materials and exam content for different job roles within a company. I’ve set up a model-driven app to keep things organized and have been using cloud flows to handle tasks like grading tests and sorting out other internal stuff.

I’ve some basic experience using Liquid on Power Pages, but I’m hitting a wall because the guides and tutorials out there only seem to cover the very basic stuff. I’m on the lookout for some real-world examples that go beyond the basics, but no luck so far. Honestly, I feel a bit stuck since I’m not sure what exactly I should be focusing on learning, and what features are ready-to-use compared to what I might need to code myself.

To give you a clearer picture, I'm trying to create a page where users can scroll through a bunch of questions (pulled from a Dynamics table) with multiple choice answers, answer them, and then see the correct answers. I was thinking of using Liquid to fetch the questions and then some JavaScript magic to handle the answers and fill in the options from a variable. But also I can't use JavaScript to keep track of the right answers since users are able to see that info if they inspect the webpage's code.

I'd really appreciate any tips or advice on how to navigate this, especially to make the most out of the built-in tools that Power Pages offers, so I can fully utilize its capabilities instead of just hosting on WordPress using the web API.

Any input would be super helpful.
