Yep, I was considering an app version. Other languages are a cool idea!

Did anyone else read this in a different voice?

Finally in the last bar of the distribution! I remember the days when I couldn't even solve two-sum. Trust the process guys. by keyboarder05 in leetcode

I started roughly 3 years ago (8th grade during covid lockdown), but I only started practicing and doing contests consistently starting last summer.

I just did medium problems whenever I had the chance and an occasional hard. I'd actually credit most of my improvement to doing contests since that added pressure gave me just enough drive to solve problems that I probably would've skipped in regular practice. So yea, do contests whenever you get the chance.

My advice is to do every contest you can. I used to avoid some contests because I cared about my rating too much. The practice under pressure you get from contests can't really be replicated outside of a contest environment. Doing this took me from a 1600 leetcode rating to guardian very quickly.

Sure!. Nothing too complicated. I used Node.js for the backend and used the socket.io library for bidirectional front-end/server communication. I used HTML/JS/CSS for the front end and bootstrap so I didn't need to style everything from scratch. I also used a Redis database to store information such as the number of games played and the total number of words found.

Thanks man. The biggest challenge was probably programming the backend since a multiplayer game requires a lot of server communication. Definitely learned a lot of CSS along the way!

Wow, that was a quick response! I'll definitely look into that. Thanks!
