Welcome to my coding challenges! These aren't just about solving puzzles — they're designed to help you build real-world skills alongside coding.

Every challenge teaches you two things:

  • How to solve a programming problem
  • How to use Git and GitHub like a professional developer

### why git?

Git is essential for any developer. Whether you're working on open source, collaborating with a team, or just want to track your own work — version control is a skill you'll use every day.

These challenges teach you the workflow that real developers use:

  • Cloning a repository to get started
  • Creating a branch for your solution
  • Writing code and committing changes
  • Opening a pull request for review

### how it works

1. Choose a Challenge — Pick one from the list below

2. Fork & Clone 

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/[challenge].git
cd [challenge]

3. Create a Branch 

git checkout -b yourusername/solution

4. Write & Test — Solve in any language, run tests with npm test, python, go test, etc.

5. Submit a PR 

git add .
git commit -m "Solution in [language]"
git push origin yourusername/solution

Then open a Pull Request and I'll review your solution!

### supported languages

Each challenge has tests for JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, Java, C#, and TypeScript. Solve in whatever language you're comfortable with.

Don't see your language? Add your own tests and submit a PR to the challenge repo!

### available challenges

  • FizzBuzz [Beginner]

    The classic coding interview question. Print numbers 1-100, replacing multiples of 3 with "Fizz", multiples of 5 with "Buzz", and multiples of both with "FizzBuzz".

  • Palindrome Checker [Beginner]

    Check if a string reads the same forwards and backwards. Ignore case and non-alphanumeric characters.

  • Two Sum [Easy]

    Given an array of numbers and a target, find two numbers that add up to the target. Return their indices.

  • Anagram Detector [Easy]

    Check if two strings are anagrams of each other - they contain the same letters in a different order.
