Android App for Schedule of Competitive Coding Contests

Revision en5, by shreyansh08, 2018-07-02 19:40:20

On my last blog post, I had posted about our application featuring real time contest data across the top 4 coding platforms. We received many suggestions from the comments that we need to include even more programming platforms. Hence we decided to include all of them. So now our application has almost all the big coding platforms- codeforces, codechef, hackerrank, hackerearth, atcoder, csacademy, topcoder and spoj. Please note that the spoj and topcoder contests will be initially unsubscribed since it features huge number of contests. If you want to view them too, you can go to settings option and tick it to receive its updates too.

Apart from old features, written in the previous blog, we have also included following new features (apart from some previous bug removals):

  1. Change Layout of Application: Previously, only three options were there current contests, upcoming contests and long contests. Now we have added an option of changing the layout to website wise distribution i.e. if you change the layout, then you can access all the contest from particular websites. This feature will be particularly very useful for those who only practice on 2-4 websites. They can unsubscribe from the rest(from setting menu) and can change the layout to receive website wise updates.

  2. One of the main new feature added is the automatic Notification generator. It will automatically send a notification on your mobile phone home screen one hour prior to the contest start time for all the upcoming contests so that you have enough time to complete your current work, freshen up and give contest with a free mind.

  3. Color combination: User can now change the color of tiles of the different websites from settings option. So if you feel that the colors are not nice and needs to be changed, you can do it yourself without any difficulties.

If you have installed the application please update it so that you can see all the changes and if you have not downloaded, please download it from google play store: CODING SCHEDULE

Suggestions and reviews are always welcomed. Thanks !!

Also we are currently working on making browser extensions on the same concept of reminding user about upcoming contests on different websites.
