The app even has the correct repo data hosted. Does anyone know how can this be?

I just emailed you!
I can't see myself using such product in any foreseeable future but I'm interested if there's any demand for this. I can see a virality potential.
I love the how it works section. Very clever!
It's crazy how many things they predicted. Love it
This is a pretty exciting blog post. I'm totally stealing the customer swag idea, it's great.
Fingers crossed on 100M ARR!
Security or bad code are potential issues regardless of the language. Stop pushing bad articles ;)
No way! This is one of my fav childhood games! It ages well too!
Hey! I was making Freecodecamp like app for mobile devices for quite some time (you might have seen it - CodeNGo) and CodeMirror was the only library that worked well on mobile. Thanks for all the hard work!
It seems to be gaining some traction. Link to the proposals repo: https://github.com/WICG/app-history
Hey, I think this might be the coolest product intro I've read.
My two points - right now docs are clearly targeting users familiar with the competition but for someone like me who does not know similar products, a 'how it works' section with examples would be awesome.
Fingers crossed!
Me and my fiends went a very similar path with a different product. We made an Android and iOS app that would help learn programming by wring actual code. Users loved it. They were spending 10 minutes in the app on average! Some spent over 2 hours a day and would finish all the content in two days. Even though, nobody wanted to pay for it. We figured, we would never be able to bootstrap with ads alone so we had to focus on something else.
Wow, that feels relatable. Glad your family is doing better now!
For me it was the combination of two factors: - my girlfriend leaving me - starting a company with my friends
This led to a massive addition to work. While I don't regret starting a company at all, my sleep quality definitely suffered.
That's so neat! I'd sometimes wonder if founders of Google etc. knew how their software worked during early years. Thanks for posting, seriously!
I like how clean and minimalistic the design is.
