- acley 3mo agoBut can you run it on their platform? NO, you need to run it on your own machine which takes a bit of work. And we have over 80 courses waaay over whatever codecrafters has
- azangru 3mo agoI'd rather have something I can tinker with on my own machine, thank you very much
- acley 3mo agoI respect your opinion too.
- acley 3mo agoYou were right, and this comment stuck with me so I have decided to go ahead and implement it. Every course now has a "work in your own editor" mode: you can download a zip with the starter code for every lesson plus a run_tests.sh that runs the full test suite locally. After that, you can push it to a public GitHub repo, we will judge it based on our grading system and internal tests
- tekno45 3mo agoif you're learning code challenges you should probably learn how to run code locally.
- flexagoon 3mo ago> you need to run it on your own machine Isn't that the best part of codecrafters? Being able to just use your own text editor instead of a janky web based one which loses everything you typed on page refresh?
- DistractionRect 3mo agoThis I didn't know, thank you for that! "Build a selfhosted codecrafters" might be a fun meta "build an X"
