#2Hey - David from Fullstack Academy. Our students this semester decided to build something awesome around learning to code and March Madness and codersbracket.com is the result.
It's March Madness brackets but instead of picking teams, people can write code that will automatically generate their bracket for them. Our students have raised some money and are donating it all to code-learning organizations (CodeNow, Code.org, GirlsWhoCode).

#3> Coder's Bracket is the product of an internal open-source project at Fullstack Academy.
so, is there source available?
Regardless, very cool concept and execution.

#6This is awesome! Is there a way to go full screen on the editor? I couldn't seem to find one.

#7Very cool idea.

#8This is awesome. Where are the data sources coming from for this? For free throw percentage, etc. I'm assuming this wasn't manually gathered as the teams were just announced yesterday and it'd be a hassle to do it so quickly.

#9Really cool. A killer feature would be the ability to test against past years tourney's actual results.

Hi debaserab2 - you can Expand Editor under Help right now, but we don't have full-screen editor. Great idea though!
