Activity

CodinGame's business model is based on sponsoring by companies wanting to get in touch with developers. CodinGame helps these companies to recruit developers through worldwide contests hosted every three months,[4] or private hackathons. The startup was also seeded through several fundraisings in 2013 and 2015.[5]

CodinGame for Work also sells turnkey tech screening solutions to help companies assess the level of their programmer candidates through coding tests.

Available programming languages for solving puzzles or taking part in contests are: Bash, C, C++, C#, Clojure, D, Dart, F#, Go, Groovy, Haskell, Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, Lua, Objective-C, OCaml, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python (v3), Ruby, Rust, Scala, Swift, TypeScript, and Visual Basic .NET.
