I would not use this because:
-I can't have my company's source code existing in yet another system. It's already in github and after CircleCI's security failure my desire to have another entry point to source code is very low.
-More importantly: I, and most experienced developers, don't use code review to find simple syntax errors or fix stylistic issues. Code review is a way to socialize your changes and make sure they make sense in the larger system. The code reviewers on a site like this will not understand the larger system with enough to detail to find issues that are not simple syntax errors.
Just my .02
- derwiki 13y agoThanksk for your thoughts! As I mentioned in another response, maybe this is best aimed at coders picking up a new technology (or non-coders becoming coders), similar to AirPair.
- wdewind 13y agoDefinitely could be a lot of room there. I can't imagine O'Reilly guides are the best way to quickly learn a new language...
- drharris 13y agoThis is what I came here to post. I think there are use cases for something like this (learning a new language), but it's going to be really difficult to get this into B2B territory for the reasons you mention. I would focus more on the educational aspect of this, like you get personal feedback from a mentor on how your programming ability is going. The main competitor here is contribs to Open Source, where you'll get lots of tips on style and integration for free (maybe too much so).
