Detailed Information

Code Wars is a coding website for kids who like competition. At Code Wars, you improve your skills by training with other coders. Coders pursue mastery by completing coding challenges in CoffeeScript, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Java, Clojure, Haskell, or C# (Csharp).

In an approach based on the Japanese martial arts practice of kata, the first step in Code Wars is to choose a language and prove your skills. The coder is ranked and given a challenge based on this initial challenge. The challenges get progressively more difficult. Coder gains Honor points for each challenge that he or she successfully completes.

Once a challenge is successfully completed, the coder has access to other coders’ solutions who’ve completed the same challenge. By studying other people’s approaches, the coder gets new insight into how the code works.

It’s a unique and fun approach to learning and practicing coding skills. It can especially help kids who are trying to master a language or expanding their knowledge of newly learned languages.
