CodeCompass

CodeCompass is an AI-powered LeetCode assistant designed to help users solve coding problems more efficiently. Built using Python and Flask, it provides real-time solutions, detailed explanations, all through a user-friendly web interface.

The CodeCompass application uses Python and Flask for its backend, enabling efficient routing, API handling, and integration with OpenAI's GPT-3.5 for AI-powered coding assistance. The frontend is built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, ensuring a responsive and user-friendly interface. Tools like pytest for testing and Flake8 for linting maintain code quality, while python-dotenv manages environment variables securely for seamless deployment.

Made for Nosu Hackathon. What a fun opportunity to practice my skillset.
