What Exercism Code Practice does
Exercism is a not-for-profit platform for learning programming through practice exercises and human mentoring. It is for people who want to build or sharpen coding skills in a specific language, and the site points complete beginners to a separate platform called Jiki. Learners pick a language track and work through coding exercises, either with the command line tool, which Exercism is primarily built around, or in an in-browser editor that supports every language without a local install. Automated analysis gives feedback on submitted solutions, and volunteer mentors review code and suggest idiomatic, language-specific approaches. Exercism describes itself as completely free and is funded by its community through donations.
