It would be cool if there was a complementary app that goes like this:

It teaches you using a hands-on approach about coding/algorithms/sys admin from beginner to expert level. Then it offers you a bunch of roadmaps on what exercise you should do next to build on the current skills you have.

Even more it would be cool that it would find the weak spots on your current skills and allow you to go back to previous exercises to improve that skill.

Wouldn't that be helpful?

Hey, that's a cool idea but probably a little ambitious one for now.

I've got a plan of adding themes as a more social element where bunch of users can sign up to a themed week during which they would all work on improving a particular skill whilst sharing helpful resources and being able to help/ask questions from each other.

Do you think you'd find that helpful?

That sounds interesting. You might want to consider increasing the time frame to a month to 3 months. IMHO,a week is too short to go deep into any topic.

Thanks that's a good point, might add different lengths so for themes that are more of an overview of a topic or a shallow topic it could be a week or two and for more in-depth topics several months
