This is a website offering interactive coding tutorials and challenges to help users learn programming languages through practice. The idea was to create a hands-on learning environment where users can improve their coding skills by solving challenges. This project enhanced my ability to create educational content and interactive web applications.

Features

• Interactive Code Editor: Real-time feedback as users type their code.
• Step-by-Step Tutorials: Comprehensive lessons with clear explanations and code examples.
• Challenges & Quizzes: Test your understanding with engaging challenges and quizzes.
• Progress Tracking: Users can save their progress and continue learning at their own pace.
• Multi-Language Support: Tutorials for various programming languages like JavaScript, Python, and more.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for building dynamic and responsive user interfaces.
• Backend: Node.js with Express for handling server-side logic.
• Database: MongoDB for managing user data and tutorial content.
• Styling: CSS for sleek and user-friendly designs.
• Hosting: Deployed on a cloud platform with CI/CD for seamless updates.

Implementation

Frontend

• Built using React to create modular and reusable components.
• Interactive elements like code editors implemented using libraries like Monaco Editor or CodeMirror.
• State management with React Context API or Redux.

Backend

• Developed with Node.js and Express to create RESTful APIs.
• Authentication implemented with JWT for secure user sessions.
• API endpoints for handling user data, progress tracking, and challenge validation.

Database

• MongoDB used for storing user details, tutorial content, and progress.
• Optimized queries to ensure smooth and fast data retrieval.

Deployment

• Hosted on Vercel or Heroku for the frontend.
• Backend hosted on AWS EC2 or Render with Docker for containerization.

How It Works

1. User Onboarding: Users sign up or log in to the platform.
2. Browse Tutorials: Explore a list of programming tutorials categorized by skill levels.
3. Practice & Learn: Use the in-browser code editor to follow lessons and solve challenges.
4. Track Progress: View completed lessons and achievements in the user dashboard.

Challenges Faced

• Ensuring real-time feedback was accurate and responsive.
• Designing an intuitive UI that works seamlessly across devices.
• Handling scalability as the user base grows.

Future Enhancements

• Adding more programming languages like Ruby and Java.
• Introducing collaborative coding sessions and peer challenges.
• Gamifying the learning experience with leaderboards and badges.
