How will my solutions be evaluated?
We follow a comprehensive evaluation process. Along with the final result, we're keen to understand your thought process and problem-solving approach. Therefore, we'll look at your code commits, your documentation, and the decisions you made during the challenge.
The evaluation criteria are listed at the end of the challenge.
Can I use ChatGPT or other AI systems for coding?
Absolutely! In fact, we use ChatGPT regularly and appreciate its potential in problem-solving. Using ChatGPT or similar systems shifts the focus from coding to debugging and refinement, which are critical skills in modern software development. If you use ChatGPT, consider including the chat link to help us understand your journey.
How important is the visual design of the frontend?
While a polished UI is nice, we're more interested in functionality and code quality. Focus on creating a clean, usable interface.
