Staffcoder

Good to see paths for building agents and RAG. The feedback I'd give is that working with AI is becoming the number one skill for a developer, and I think it deserves a big part of this, not as building AI products but as working with it every day.What I mean is things like setting up a project so agents work well in it, especially for a company where people use different editors, keeping the rules in the repo so the whole team learns from them, and connecting the agent to the right tools. It's gone past infrastructure as code, it's more like business as code at this point. Most of it is setup and then improving the process bit by bit. Even how you get it to talk to you matters, because reading AI output all day is tiring.Nobody really teaches this yet and a lot of it already has standards. Is that within the scope of what Staffcoder is meant for?Anyway, love the app; it definitely gets an upvote from me, and I wish you good luck.

"real engineering work instead of algorithm puzzles" is the pitch that makes me want to know how grading works, since that's exactly what's hard about moving past algorithm puzzles. a two-sum problem has one right answer a test suite can check. a Kubernetes deployment or a React component usually has several reasonable ways to do it, and the bad ones often still pass a basic test and only show their cost later, in debugging or at scale. is the grading rubric checking for specific implementation patterns, or just that the end state works, because those give pretty different signals about whether someone actually built it the way a senior engineer would

Are you planning to add more Docker and Kubernetes challenges?

The puzzle grind never matched the work I did on the job, so this one clicks. I'd sooner practice something that behaves like a real task and find where I'm rusty. Bookmarking it shashank ;)

Congrats, Shashank and team! Learning React in a real project with a terminal and preview feels a lot closer to the work people will actually do.

Building and learning in a real-world environment is what makes Staffcoder special. Excited to see it live! 🚀

Really excited to be part of building Staffcoder. Great to finally see it live!

Hi everyone,I'm Shashank, maker of Staffcoder, and I'm really excited to share it with you today.Staffcoder is a place to practice coding the way you actually work on the job: inside real frameworks, with real tools.Here's how it works:Pick a stack, like React, Next.js, Django, Spring Boot, Docker, Kubernetes, or AI agentsOpen a challengeSolve it in a full browser IDE with a real terminal, file system, and live previewThere's nothing to install. Just open a challenge and start coding.Right now there are 1000+ challenges across 40+ learning paths, covering frontend, backend, fullstack, mobile, DevOps, data, QA, and AI engineering. It's free to start.Thanks for checking us out.
