Re: Show HN: Binarysearch.io – Learn Algorithms Together
#2Hey everyone,
I’ve found that learning algorithms is more engaging when solving them with other people. So, I’ve built a site to help people learn algorithms and data structures together! I’ve worked on it with a friend for a few months and would love your feedback.
On Binary Search, you can create or join a room with others and work on the same coding problem together. You can choose to compete to finish the problem first, or solve them together and help each other out.
Working with friends (or strangers!) makes for a much more engaging atmosphere, and we’ve actually built a small community of coders who love to help each other out! Check it out at https://binarysearch.io — we’ll be hanging out in some of the rooms. Let us know if you have any feedback or run into any issues. Hope to see you around!

How many problems do you have available?

I've got 50 at the moment, ranging from easy to hard -- adding more every day, though!

The `/api/stats` request (500) hangs the application on my side.
Can't wait to try it out, I wish there were more game-y training sites. Codewars is fun, but knowing you're competing with other people at the same time is way more interesting.

Came here to say the same thing. This endpoint is eventually responding for me, but it's taking between 20-30 seconds.
In addition, https://binarysearch.io/api/rooms just returned a 502 Bad Gateway. Maybe the site is getting hugged by HN.

Hey, thanks for the heads up and sorry about that! We've just pushed a fix. Should be back up and running in a few minutes.

We're back open for business! Just had to cache some things :P
