Inspiration

We saw an Instagram post about educating gen-Zs on coding. We wanted to spread the love to everyone including babies.

What it does

It's an editor that allows for the mapping of reserved words. Hence, you can 'create your own slang' which will be transplied to JavaScript.

How we built it

App: React + Charka UI Code view: Syntax Highlighter Code Formatting (and 'validator'): Prettier

Challenges we ran into

Personal time management

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Working product

What we learned

Greater knowledge of how transpilers work and how languages work

What's next for Slang-Coding

  • Do proper transpiling using tokening, parsing and AST instead of keyword replacement
  • Pipe it to LeetCode so you can create your own slang and challenge your friends
