This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
Open-source competitive programming platform where users solve coding tasks head-to-head in real-time. Built by the Hexlet community. Supports 20+ programming languages via containerized execution.
- Backend: Elixir 1.19.4 / OTP 28.2, Phoenix ~1.8 with LiveView
- Frontend: React + Redux Toolkit, Vite, Monaco Editor
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Code Execution: Docker/Podman containers per language (runner service)
- Package Manager: pnpm (not npm) for frontend
Elixir umbrella project with three apps under apps/:
codebattle— Main Phoenix web app (backend + frontend assets)runner— HTTP service that executes user code in isolated containers; language images inapps/runner/images/phoenix_gon— Shared library for passing server data to frontend
Frontend source lives in apps/codebattle/assets/js/ with React widgets, Redux slices, and XState machines.
See AGENTS.md for detailed module organization and core domain contexts.
