Hi PH community! 👋 When in between jobs, I found myself struggling to brush up my knowledge on algorithms and coding skills to prepare for whiteboard interviews, and realized how it would be better if I had taken my time practicing everyday instead of rushing (with panic and self-loathing due to unemployment, yes). That's the reason I decided to build an app that's simple and convenient enough to help me and my fellow developer friends combat laziness and procrastination; and develop a healthy habit of taking on coding challenges everyday, as this is the skill that needs building up patiently, gradually. I have gathered the most useful features in this very first version of the app: ✅More than 800 free LeetCode problems (🙏kudos to the amazing source) ✅Link to available LeetCode articles if any ✅Solutions collected from popular GitHub repos (🙏kudos to dev community) ✅Convenient filters and option to view random challenges ✅iCloud syncing to make sure your progress and settings are in synced between your devices Some premium features: ⏰Reminders set up to get notified with daily challenges 📝Ability to save notes for each problem and share with friends 🌗Dark mode for night owls I really hope this app can prove itself useful to other developers like how it does to me 🐱Please let me know if y'all have any feedbacks / suggestions to make it even better!

I kinda like it and want to use it everyday, just like my herbal tea.

Pros:

Looks neat

Cons:

Only 2 themes

Huong, this app looks so cool congrats on your launch. How different is this from Swift playground? I don't the intricacies on Swift PG so would be nice to know. I'm looking for apps just like this one to start my son on coding as soon as he can read.

@marcperel Hi Marc! Essentially Swift Playground developed by Apple is a platform for playing or experimenting with Swift language; it comes with an IDE to run Swift programs. AlgoKitty however focuses on making it convenient to practice coding challenges, i.e solving puzzles using any programming language or pseudo code - as a preparation for whiteboard interview sessions or just purely for fun 🙂 For kids I'd recommend getting them started with logic and programming with apps that offer simple but fun interactive challenges, then play around with Swift PG to understand programming better before learning more about algorithms and practicing them.

@itsmeichigo Dude thanks for the reply, definitely going to take this onboard, and good luck with your app :)
