Jax

Hi Hunters! My name is Arpit and I have been a software engineer for over 16 years, currently working as a research engineer in Philadelphia while also managing a couple of technical communities here. This app came out of my frustrations with how I see software taught these days. Most people I meet, especially those just starting their journey in the software development field, have a hard time reading long technical books or sitting passively through long videos, but when I meet folks looking for advice or recommendations, I end up reluctantly recommending the same books and courses. Jax is my attempt at trying something new. Jax is a chatbot that teaches you programming and lets you “choose your own adventure” through the content. Based on your choices and your answers to its questions and quizzes, it can modify your learning path so that the content is customized to you. And of course, all the content is presented in as casual a tone as possible with a healthy amount of memes, badges, and gifs 😉 I have a lot of plans for this project in the future but I’d love for folks to try it out and send me any feedback you might have. Cheers! -arpit

This is very helpful in learning

This seems like such a great idea! I love all projects that try to teach in new ways - definitely a big believer that the days of "single track" learning are long gone. Keen to see how this vibes with learners 👀 Good luck 🚀
