For background, I'm a software engineer with 5+ YOE. I recently noticed that I've got bad at coding. Upon thinking, I found out that it's because of me using Claude Code / Cursor; I've lost touch with coding, I've only become outcome obsessed.
That's still fine, the problem is that when my juniors give me a PR to review, I get blank. This didn't use to happen earlier, but because I've lost touch with coding because of these AI tools, I can't think of much. And honestly small PRs are fine, but the big ones, oh I almost die thrice reviewing them.
So, I thought that there should be a platform for building your code review skills (similar to how we have codeforces/leetcode and all for DSA skills).
It's called HolyNit(I'm so proud of this name XD). https://holynit.com/ — go check it out and leave some feedback here. Feel free to reach out for more free credits. I'm dying to get some people to try it out.
If you want to contribute to some awesome challenges, then you're welcome as well!

But it has nothing to do with CP.
I saw this on Reddit recently!!
I have used it. It's good, it's just that you need to find people to contribute good challenges.
You can think of going B2B with this, where you can reach out to companies to get this incorporated as one of the hiring steps. I'm sure there would be demand for it.
How is this different from CodeRabbit? Well CodeRabbit does AI code reviews if you want and there are some good free alternatives for PR review as well.
This isn't an AI tool to help do your PR review.
This is a platform designed for humans to improve their code reviewing skills by going through platform curated PR challenges.
Basically think of it like codeforces / leetcode for PR challenges.
I really love your project, but it's sad to see so many people gradually losing their coding skills , they end up having to spend significant time sharping their skills again.
Thanks for the comment! Please do use it and share with friends, colleagues etc.
Yeah man, I'm having first hand experience of this. We're not exercising our brains enough and it's only gone bad after the daily use of these AI tools. But that's the world we have to live in now, better train it than loose it. ;)
There are some choices that we can't make — like dropping ai tools to code: That's the world we live in now. If I don't use AI tools to code, I'll be under productive. I'll not be as competent as my other colleagues, so I don't have the privilege to make that choice for me.
Hence the platform.

"The use of SQLAlchemy and SQL is a standard and appropriate implementation for this service; calling it 'dogshit' is unprofessional and non-technical."
LOL
Even though software engineering is cringe imo, I think this app is very cool! It's a very unique use of LLMs, and the UI was nice/intuitive as well.
Yeah, I saw your comment and I was laughing for a minute straight. Lol
Yeah, I'm positive for this thing to work, just need to reach the right audience. I got a lot of people visiting my site from Codeforces, but most of them just glanced and went away.
Thanks for trying to use it :)
I tested it and I really liked it.
Appreciate it very much! Do share it with your friends :)
