Nice concept!
I tried out code test and submission for the proverbial "ping pong" test and it handles that gracefully. That's excellent work!
Avid coders would surely like to engage in this sort of coding challenge platform. I am curious as to how you plan to monetize it.
I would recommend the following features / enhancements :
- Metrics comparison should be per language. cpp solutions would always be faster than python :)
- Since the code editor is not fancy, most devs would code the solution in their IDE and then submit, so Average Time Spent to code, is a pointless metric.
- Input validation should be encouraged and considered as part of performance metrics.
I certainly like it and would like to see an enhanced version. Congrats and best of luck !
@mitesh_raval Thank you for your feedback!
I am not planning to monetize it at the moment, since we are still averaging about 70-100 daily players. However, in the future, I plan to allow small startups or companies to sponsor the daily problem and it will be revolved around a feature in their product. Of course I will limit this to at max once a week, but I never plan to put any ads on the site.
For the metrics comparison, it is not possible to compare per language at the moment. This is because of the fact that about 70-80% of users use python and almost none of them use ruby or swift. With so little users using the other languages, it would be pointless to compare them individually at the moment. However, I definitely get what you are saying and plan to implement this in the near future.
I also do agree with your last two points and am going to make timing an optional feature in the near future.
I'm rebuilding the frontend in react, so I plan on launching a lot more features really soon!
Thanks for using it and please let me know if you have any problems with it or any feedback!
@sohumw12
Great plan!
Just two cents regarding lang wise metrics:
From the langs detected in submissions so far:
rank most used lang as well as ,
performance metrics within same lang submissions
and across all submissions (which is already there).
That was in "codelish" if you may :)
@mitesh_raval Thanks for the suggestions! I think you'll be happy because both of these will be in the update releasing in about a week!
@syed_umair_ali Good luck! Feel free to let me know if you ever face any problems. Thanks for using codele
My Submission Results: PASS : )
It Classic Product and I like submit my own problem features,
Kudos to your team, @sohumw12!!
Oh wow, well I love Wordle but I have to say I haven't spent too much time working with LeetCode but this app is compelling me to give it a go :)
Nothing quite like a bit of gamification to get people enticed, it always works on me!
Best of luck with the launch Sohum!
@thomnova Thank you! I just checked them out and looks like they launched only a week ago, and we've been around for a few months now.
@clean_8d I look through concepts in leetcode and past interview problems on the web. I then build similar but a little more fun versions of those problems. We also accept user submitted problems!
Great idea! I think one place where this is really useful is people who already got the job. Often times we stop doing LC (which is all about pattern recognition) so when the time to interview again comes we have to start from scratch. Instead, a daily challange can keep your skills sharp. Great work!
