Alternatives
Products that do what Open-Source Interview Platform does
Hey! I have been building CoderScreen, an alternative to coding interview platforms. I thought it was an interesting product to build with the evolution with all the sandbox products coming our for code execution, as well as me never being satisfied with existing platforms. The current features are: - Live interviews for pair programming exercises - Assessments for async technical screening It is built on Cloudflare primitives such as Workers, Durable Objects for the multiplayer experience, Sandbox for the code execution. Would love to get feedback on the current product, as well as hear…

Hello everyone, We just launched a side-project we have been building over the last couple of months -- Coderoulette is a pair programming game for developers, like a Chatroulette for hackers. We match developers in real time and give them coding challenges they have to solve doing pair programming using a collaborative IDE and video conference. You can check it out here: https://www.coderoulette.com/ We also published an article explaining how we built it. I'd love to hear your feedback.…

Hello HN! I want to share DevScreen (https://devscreen.io/). We’ve been iterating on DevScreen for a few years now with the goal of delivering an awesome interview process for both candidates and the company. We achieve this by using realistic job-based tests and allowing the candidate to use their own editor - not a whiteboard or unfamiliar online code editor. Many of the existing products in this space just bring the same old whiteboard coding puzzles to the web, without solving the core problem: those tests are not a good indicator of performance. This is a waste of time…

Howdy friends! Tell me if this is an atrociously terrible idea - I've been working on building a leetcode for clientside devs so we can practice React and Javascript interview questions in a more concise way, I call it clientside.dev I just finished a beta version of it yesterday and plan on releasing it with many more problems on Jan 1st but it's there if you wanna play with it open to any ideas / feedback however mean or nice it may be :)

I spent the past few weeks making an open source cloud code editing environment with an AI copilot and multiplayer collaboration! It's fully self-hostable in 5-10 minutes. There's a lot of minor improvements to be made, and some are already listed in the Github issues. Let me know what you think and feel free to try it out.

For the past few months, I’ve been hacking together Hive: a retro-style virtual workspace for devs who love building in public. It’s a bit rough but already has some cool features: - AI-powered presence to represent you when you’re offline. - Live video streaming to showcase your work in real time. - VS Code integration to broadcast your status live. - GraphQL API for full customization and hackability (such as using your own agents) - Web3 donations to support and get support from other builders. In this demo, you can claim a desk by walking up to it and pressing E, then personalize it with…

The interview is spinning up our local development environment. Feels like the perfect bidirectional way to really check if someone is a technical fit.

Hi! Recently I've launched - mybfio.io - platform for software reviews with social network aspect. Prehistory Many great system are already in place that allow people to search and rate software products, including the site I am publishing this post on. However I have always felt that those systems are not specifically centered around product/software development lifecycle (releases, real users feedback over a product entire lifetime, so on) and often too broad or not designed specifically for that type of work, which is ok. Why? As an opensource author I would like to have constant…

Hello HN, I am building a devtool to understand existing codebases. The idea originates from my time at big tech as well as various attempts to get involved in open source projects. When I was in college I wanted to improve my coding skills by contributing to opensource projects. I would pickup a bug or feature request but I always found myself stuck at the very first step. I did not understood where and how to begin contributing. I once submitted a patch in firefox which was labeled "Good first issue" but that was still very handheld. The assigner told me exactly which files I need to…

Hi all, Late last year, I did a round of interviews with big tech companies. During preparation, I realized that there were tons of sites with whiteboarding interview questions, but not a lot of well-explained ones. I decided to build https://algodaily.com, intended to be the easiest place on the internet to prepare for technical interviews. Every challenge is walked through step by step, and includes quizzes that help with recall. Every challenge is written in JS, which is IMO the best language for new programmers since it can easily be run and tested in the browser. I also…

My name is Elliott. For the last three years, I’ve been building a DevOps platform on the best-in-class open source platforms (Kubernetes, Elixir, PostgreSQL, Grafana, etc.). The goal is to give engineering teams access to a modern DevOps infrastructure without needing to have a full SRE/DevOps team dedicated. It’s also open source /fair source - all the source code is here → https://github.com/batteries-included/batteries-included I shipped a public beta today and would love to hear initial reactions, thoughts, and feedback. Here are details of the platform: *…

I built an open source desktop AI assistant after getting frustrated with how brittle most tools feel once questions go beyond basic Q and A. The goal was to explore whether an assistant could reliably handle interview style interactions such as system design discussions, multi step coding problems, and deeper follow up questioning without hiding behavior behind a closed SaaS. The assistant supports both cloud and local LLMs, uses a bring your own API key model, and is intentionally opinionated so behavior stays predictable under pressure. Most of the work went into managing context, follow…

This weekend I finally shipped Gryt, a project I’ve been building since 2022 — an open-source, self-hostable Discord-style app focused on reliable voice chat + text. I’m the creator. I started it after getting fed up with Discord disconnects/paywalls and wanted something self-hosted and auditable. I started on this in 2022 and had an early proof-of-concept working back then (auth + friends list), but I quickly realized WebRTC voice isn’t something you can duct-tape together. I spent a big chunk of the next couple years learning the stack (ICE/DTLS-SRTP, NAT traversal, SFU design),…

Hey HN! I built Algochurn - A place for front-end developers to practice most commonly asked front-end interview questions. Of all the available resources out there, I wanted to have a place where I could practice coding questions myself (and to mimic a coding interview setup) and solve the problems with a time based approach. After 2 months of questions curation, I've come up with the first set of questions that are being asked in Big product based companies that assess candidates on their React skills. Use Algochurn to speed up your interview preparation. Save and Bookmark questions, Mark…

Hey HN, I created an all-in-one platform to help job seekers build their resume, track job applications, and prepare for interviews. I built this mainly because the current tools for job seekers pale in comparison to the tools recruiters use to field candidates. Would love to know what you think!
