Motivation

I could not find a neovim-centric, efficient, dependency-free, flexible, and easily customizable competitive programming workflow that "just works"--so I made it myself. I conferenced with top competitive programmers at Carnegie Mellon Univerity and the University of Virginia and covered their (and my) pain points:

  • Scraping: contests are automatically loaded asynchronously
  • Test Case Management: test case editor (:CP edit)
  • UI: both run and panel layouts cover common formats
  • Extensibility: snippet plugins, compilation, etc. are left to the programmer
