When we did our first Show HN way back in June of last year, Codementor was an one-man team and a little more than just a landing page.

The support and feedback from HN at the time made us believe and gave us the push we needed. A huge thanks to the community here! Thank you! None of these could've happened without the support here.

I understand we still have tons of work to do - any feedback would be appreciated!

This is an interesting idea. I could see it being used by senior and junior engineers alike.

There are times when I'm working in an area where I do not have experience or expertise and think, "it would be nice to have a specialist review what I'm doing here." Sometimes I'll ask a friend, but you can only do that so often. It would be better to pay for that advice.

This could be really useful to generalist developers.
