CodeArena

Challenge friends to solve algorithmic problems in real time

CodeArena launched on April 13, 2026.

What it does

CodeArena - a real-time competitive coding platform for 1v1 battles. Instead of comparing stats like “I solved more problems than you”, users can directly face off in live coding duels. Features: * 1v1 private battles with friends * Public matchmaking (open arena) * Ranked matches (Easy / Medium / Hard) * Real-time opponent progress * Rating system based on wins/losses * Sandboxed code execution + anti-cheat reporting

Challenge friends to solve algorithmic problems in real time. Prove your skills, climb the ranks, dominate the arena.

    Hello everyone, I've been working on a project called CodenQuest, a coding practice app inspired by platforms like LeetCode, but with a major twist: it's heavily gamified, similar to Duolingo. The main goal is to make coding practice more engaging, especially on mobile. Key Features: - Diverse coding questions with integrated hints and timers. - Code editor with code completion and fill in the blanks questions - Performance statistics (runtime, memory, CPU usage, and more). - Gamified elements: leagues, ranking systems, daily challenges, friends, and streak mechanisms. - Available on iOS and…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
