CodeCrafters
The hardest programming challenges on the internet

CodeCrafters offers advanced programming challenges where developers rebuild real-world tools like Redis, Git, and SQLite from scratch in their preferred language. The platform is designed for experienced engineers who want to deeply understand the architecture of the software they use every day. Users submit solutions via git push and receive automated test feedback.
Users pick a challenge, open their own IDE, write code to rebuild a real tool from scratch, and git push to trigger automated tests.
