Notes from the demo run
AI-generatedWe signed up for BrokenRepo and drove the whole loop end to end: challenge library, search and the level/category filters, then into the lab for The Missing Name, opening files in your in-browser editor, revealing a hint, and running the vitest suite until the 2-of-3 result came back. Your signup is the fastest we have hit all week: email, password, done, straight into the library with a session. No verification tab, no captcha, no onboarding wizard. The lab itself is the standout, a real sandbox that boots in under a second and returns a genuine AssertionError with a stack trace, not a canned message.
- Signup is one screen and grants a session immediatelyEmail plus password, no verify-email gate and no captcha. We were in the challenge library about four seconds after clicking Create account. Most tools we walk this week cost an evaluator two or three context switches before they see anything.
- The lab returns a real failure, not a canned oneRun tests gave back 2 of 3 passed with the actual vitest AssertionError (expected undefined to be 'Priya Sharma') and the full stack. That is the moment the product sells itself, and it lands in roughly 25 seconds.
- Progress is genuinely persistedAfter one attempt, /progress moved to 1 attempted and the challenge row switched from Open challenge to Continue. The state round-trip works, which is the part most practice sites fake.
- The header renders logged-out for a beat after signupStraight after Create account the nav still showed Log in / Create account while the page underneath was already authenticated, then swapped to My progress / Log out. A brand-new user can read that as the signup not having worked. Resolving the session on the server for that first render would remove the flicker.
- Preparing sandbox stays on screen after the lab is usableRun tests, the file tree and the editor were all interactive while the status still read Preparing sandbox, and it only flipped to Sandbox ready later. Flipping the label as soon as the controls are live would stop people waiting on a lab that is already working.
