/ About /

Advent of Code is an annual online event featuring a series of daily programming puzzles released throughout December, similar to an advent calendar. Participants solve challenges using any programming language of their choice, often competing on leaderboards. It is free to participate and draws a large community of developers each year.

/ How it works /

Each day in December a new two-part puzzle is unlocked, and participants submit solutions written in any language to earn stars on a global or private leaderboard.
