Introducing Code House - A whole new world of 300 Developer Cheatsheets

Hello Folks

This is Savio here. I hope you all are doing good. I'm young web dev with an intention to enhance as a successful web developer. Today, I'm super proud to introduce my latest and biggest ever project, which I had made till date as a submission for HarperDB Hackathon on Hashnode. Once the hackathon was announced, I was super busy organizing my time and put myself into a good schedule to complete the project by the deadline. After the hard work for 24 days, I finally could meet up with the project, I had in my mind. It was hard, but I loved every moment of it.

Little flashback

Developers love cheatsheets, we cannot leave without them. Indeed, that's true for me too. I always spend a lot of time hunting for the best cheatsheets, I waste a lot of time to find a good cheat sheet for my need. That gave me the thought that what if I could build a super huge storehouse of developer cheatsheets, and a user can get access easily to tons of cheatsheets according to his need. Once, I started building , I found that they're more I could do to improve it. And that's how Code House started. The project is never finished, it is still becoming better and better. I'm glad I was able to create a super useful app for the DEV community .

Introducing Code House

Filter by categories, or source, sort by time or popularity, dark mode, bookmark cheatsheets, add new cheatsheets, request feature, and much more features, make the app amazing!

Github Repo / Live Demo

Inspiration

Hunting for cheatsheets took a lot of time, and we developers don't like to waste it. And that is how I came up with an idea to create a website, that contains a huge amount of curated cheatsheets from the internet. All cheatsheets are reviewed and there will no such spam, giving developers a lot of time to code than hunt. There are 29 categories currently, so, if a user need a cheatsheet of a particular language, he can just sort it up.

There is a lot of content on the internet and it is not so easy to sort out which one is good, this is where code house takes place. All cheatsheets are curated and reviewed by users, therefore helping you to have the best one.

This was my first goal in mind, and soon as I started building, I put myself into a schedule to improve the app with more advanced features.

TL;DR

Please watch the short teaser (~2 mins), use headphones
