Every option
fails you.

You open a new tab. Twenty minutes later you haven't written a single line.

ChatGPT

No memory between sessions. Generates the same five patterns. You spend 20 minutes tweaking prompts and still end up with a generic CRUD app with zero engineering constraints.

LeetCode

Algorithm puzzles, not backend systems. Reversing a linked list ≠ building a rate limiter. Wrong skill, wrong muscle, wrong context.

Google

A 2019 blog post. A todo-list tutorial. Stack Overflow from before Docker. Not what you needed. Never what you need.

Three inputs.
One challenge.

Pick your stack, difficulty, and an optional theme. Done in under three seconds.

01 →
Configure your challenge

Select your tech stack, difficulty level (Junior to Principal), and optionally a theme. Leave the theme blank for a curated real-world scenario.

02 →
Stream starts instantly

The challenge streams to you in real time via SSE — no loading spinner. First content in under 1.5 seconds. You read while it generates.

03 →
Saved to your library

Every challenge is automatically saved to your personal library. Review, retry, or share with your team. Credits never expire.

Real engineering problems.

Rate limiters. Auth systems. Telemetry pipelines. Message queues. Scenarios you'd encounter on a real team, with real non-functional requirements.

No more FizzBuzz. No more CRUD.
03 —

Personal library, forever.

Every challenge is saved automatically. Your history, your bank, your context. Credits never expire — use them whenever you want.

Unlimited library storage.

Real-time streaming.

Challenges stream token by token via SSE the moment generation starts. No loading spinners. First content in under 1.5 seconds, every time.

Avg first token < 1.5s

Real output.
Real engineering.

This is actual output generated by the system. No CRUD. No toys.

FinTrace — Internal Audit Ledger Service
Generated challenge · Java + Spring Boot + PostgreSQL + Redis
Mid-Level ~3 days

FinTrace provides automated financial reconciliation for mid-market brokerage firms. Under regulatory pressure, the team needs an immutable, append-only audit ledger — a centralized repository for every critical financial event, cryptographically verifiable and strictly sequenced. Only authorized service principals may write. The current log-based system cannot survive the upcoming compliance audit.

// Core Requirements
POST /v1/events — accepts event_type, JSON payload, origin_service_id
Immutability enforced at API level — PUT / DELETE / PATCH return 405
Monotonically increasing sequence numbers per origin service, no gaps
JWT auth with AUDIT_WRITER role · 100 req/min rate limit per service ID
P99 write latency < 100ms · CORS restricted to *.fintrace.internal
// 🔥 BONUS CHALLENGE

Implement an "Integrity Check" endpoint returning a SHA-256 hash of the last 10 records for a given origin_service_id. Allows downstream consumers to detect database-level tampering by comparing hashes over time.
