Samsara Coding Problem Generator

Samsara Coding Problem Generator is a React-based web application that leverages the OpenAI API to generate random coding problems, complete with solutions and explanations. The project is divided into two main parts: the backend for API calls and the frontend for data fetching and displaying.

Installation

Follow the instruction below to install and run the react app on your system:

1. Clone the project into your system

   git clone https://github.com/manishacharya60/samsara-coding-problems-generator.git
   

2. If you want to run the backend locally, go into the backend folder and create a file named .env
3. Add the following line in your .env file:

   OPENAI_API_KEY=<Your OpenAI API Key Here>
   

4. Then, run the following command.

   $ node .
   

   By default, the backend runs on http://localhost:8080
5. Then, go back to the frontend folder and run the following commands

   $ npm install
   

6. In the fetchdata() function update your API URL with http://localhost:8080
7. Finally, run the following command

   $ npm start
   

   By default, the frontend runs on http://localhost:3000

Features

A few features I have implemented in this project are:

1. Tabbed Interface: Separate tabs for questions and solutions for better organization.
2. Comprehensive Content: Each question includes examples, solutions in Java, explanations, and complexities.
3. Dynamic Generation: Fetches new and unique coding problems on each request.
