Coding Community Invite users to join this community to tackle algorithmic challenges and assist each other with coding problems. Many companies conduct coding interviews that involve solving algorithmic problems. Thus, we can establish a community filled with a variety of algorithmic challenges, allowing users to participate, solve these challenges, and feature on leaderboards.
Alternatively We could develop a help forum equipped with an embedded IDE, facilitating members to aid one another in resolving "coding issues."
going to reopen this issue so we can get some input from other team members
I think the Coding Community is a strong idea but introduces complexity when executing user's code, particularly for security. We could potentially not allow users to execute code, or see if there are options available online where we can send code to be securely executed in a sandboxed environment.
In general, it looks like we are leaning toward some sort of puzzle-related problem-solving activity. Some more ideas under this umbrella:
Idea chosen during meeting (26/3/24):
User draws something under certain time limit (very quick) and posts their drawing. Other users guess what they've drawn.
Some specifics (to be refined/added to):
As stated in the marking criteria, what is our interpretation of a 'request'?
An idea I had was some sort of problem solving puzzles people could post and complete (word play, maths, etc) for points - like IQ test questions
