I resisted getting one out of principle till I realised this. Landed a job at FANG ~7 years ago after doing so and that $30 subscription has probably paid for itself 20,000x over at this point.
Thanks for the feedback. Part of the thinking in building this depends on the company but bigger companies are still running DS&A rounds on basically every loop. This was built because the interviews that remain are still high stakes and the prep material hasn't really evolved since the green book era.
Nebius hit me with two LeetCodes, communicated a third round of system design and instead did a third round of LeetCode. It's very much a thing for companies worth applying for, especially if internal communication gets messy.
Any company still doing them is wasting their time. I can show up hungover and half asleep with an Astra/Fable subscription and ace any leetcode problem with zero difficulty.
Most companies still run these rounds. AI is generally banned during them, though some places are experimenting with allowing it. They want to see your foundational knowledge, not what a copilot can write.
I don't need this but this looks very cool. I love neon colors and everything.
Some of these we, dynamic programming is something we didn't do at university and few years ago I did a course to learn it. It is good to know, wish we dealt with more of such intellectual problems at work, but as we all know this is not the case.
Working on making light mode, I'm more of a dark mode guy myself but I get it. Should be fixed shortly. MVPs don't give me time for much of a stylistic polish at this point.
A Neetcode or Leetcode subscription is one of the highest ROI things you can buy

What is the principle?
Why would the subscription matter if you're not even getting interviews? The only relevant metric is your personal network, everything else is done.
I like the look of the app... I just wonder if leetcode interviews are even a thing anymore...

Are leetcode interviews still a thing in 2026?

Yeah I just scheduled a technical and they told me it would be leetcode style.
The company I interviewed for directly before was AI only, just prompt and review no coding allowed.
Fun time to prep

Expedia was about to Leetcode me but I took another offer before it happened.
Leetcode seems so pointless in the AI era. It was already pretty pointless but there’s nothing to it now.

You couldn't afford a used book but can afford the tokens? No decent library around either? Okay, boss...
What books? That horrible green book?
why would you go read a book, it wouldn't even make the HN front page
lol, books don't give you that fresh MVP build feel

Anyhow, really cool.
Thanks for the feedback!
Isn't it just the default slopcoded website design?
Yes. It is the clearest giveaway of a complete slop style site.

Is this GPT? I'm trying to train myself to distinguish the different breeds.
Yeah and it’s buggy on mobile
Sorry about that, the focus was desktop for now. It's definitely on my todo list.
you dont need Clickbait youtube title lies on HN.
Hate these so much.
What would you have titled it?
