Dear Codeforces community,

CPH was created more than 3 years ago! Many people have used (200K+ downloads) & contributed to this tool and I'm grateful to the competitive programming community.

As I have moved to focus on other projects, I'm looking for a maintainer to continue development of this project. If you are interested in taking this project forward and helping the community, please comment on this GitHub issue with some information about your technical skills. Feel free to ask questions too. I can personally attest that maintaining an open source project both fun and rewarding! :D

The maintainer's work will involve:

Developing new features and reviewing features by other community members.
Tracking & triaging bugs, and engaging with the community.
Publishing releases to the VS Code Marketplace.
Continuing development of CPH Submit and adding support for more browsers.

Some of skills needed will be strong familiarity with JS/TS, knowledge of the VS Code API, and good familiarity with GitHub & Git. Bonus points if you've contributed to this project before!

I'm happy that so many programmers found this project useful, and hope it continues to be useful for many more years! Thank you for your support and delightful reviews through the years. <3

Cheers!

Hello everyone!

I'm happy to share that my Firefox browser extension, cph-submit can now allow you to directly submit a problem from within VS Code during a live contest, with the click of a single button!

Earlier, it only worked for past problems.

This extension is supposed to be used with cph.

Enjoy!
