About Us

A smiling unicorn with a bowtie, surrounded by a circle of faces of people who've contributed to the project.

Our goal is to provide the best resources possible to learn any computer science related topic

What’s a for loop? How do I create animations in CSS? How is memory allocated in Assembly? No matter what the topic is, we want our website to be welcoming, supportive and informational.

Our content will have a wide range of subject matters, difficulty curves, and (we hope) perspectives. We want to make resources for the seasoned full-time developer just as we would a newcomer hobbyist and everyone between the two.

We know this is a lofty goal, though, and we don't want to do it alone. If you're interested in helping out, open a pull request and help us reach others by providing translations, help the code maintenance on this site, write a post for us, or jump in on discussions and help other readers on our Discord.


Where to find us, you ask?

We have various social media accounts where we share updates and new content with folks! We also have a YouTube channel where we host livestreams, recorded talks, and much more educational content on computer science related topics.

As mentioned previously, we also have a Discord where we chat tech, help out with CS related problems and questions, and generally have a good time. If you're looking to get in touch with us, this is probably the best way to do so.


Statement of Ethics

We never want to end up in a place where our educational content, experience, or community is compromised by either financial sway or potentially harmful members of the community. As such, we've implemented the Contributor Covenant as our code of conduct to uphold these values.

We also pledge to maintain transparency in regards to any finances that flow through the project. Not every sponsorship contains a financial contribution, but if one does we will disclose both what those finances are going towards and what will be done in exchange.
