fernandinhopj doesn't think Screeps is an alternative to HackerRank
The best site for learners today. It is like an exercise book, the more you solve the more you can.
Nice platform of programming for beginners. can code in many programming languages. also helps us to increase accuracy and presentation.
The good
The bad
It's hard to copy and paste to/from the site. I suspect this is on purpose, because any reasonable code editor would have this feature, and you'd have to go to great extents to break it so much.
Yes, the ellipsis is coming straight from the clipboard; I did not edit them in! I can't copy my own code back from the site!
I thank AlternativeTo for existing, because they allowed me to find alternatives to this poor user experience. I will try some of them out; I'll probably pass on HackerRank's opportunity because of this copy/paste conundrum; as much as its gamification tries to hook me into addiction.
I think any site messing with your browser's basic functions infringes upon your right to use your computer. (Richard Stallman, founder of GNU, noticed that if you can't use the software, then the software is using you.)
The fact that they are doing it for copy protection or enforcing honesty among players is not an excuse. Malevolent people will circumvent the JS, but honest people are repelled by such mistreatment.

This site used to be free. Now it's a pay service. I stopped using it mainly because the "problems" were nowhere near real-world. They just teach you how to program around using lots of memory and using huge numbers.
