In 2023 I finally tried https://adventofcode.com/, motivated by an internal company leaderboard and competition. I finished with 47/50 stars, being 4 in our internal ranking, but there were many ups and downs on my way.
Advent tasks are usually algorithmic. I went through them using JavaScript and no external libraries (apart from Jest). I want to share some algorithms I got to know, techniques which helped me and some observations about AoC community.
Software Engineer, IT Trainer
I help to achieve better results by creating computer programs and by sharing my knowledge about how to program. I combine an engineering approach with a smile and a business-focused mindset. I am a software engineer and IT trainer focused on front-end, JVM, and integration technologies, with relevant full-stack experience. Since 2013, I have been making a living by programming. I share my knowledge at meetups, job fairs, and conferences. I am skilled in JavaScript, Java, and Arduino and in addition to programming and knowledge sharing, I am truly interested in AI, technology, Dragon Ball, MMA, and the strategies of the big companies (Frightful5).
