I’ve been seeing Algoexpert.io ads on youtube for about a year now and I’m curious about it.

I’ve been leetcoding for a long time - also paid for its premium for a bit. How would you compare that to algoexpert?

    Just look up the person who made it, Clement Mihailescu. He's a bootcamper with ~2 years of industry experience who created the site only 6 months after getting his first job (at Google). I would not trust it

    • I voted useless because the product sucks and has nothing new to offer. Secondly, Has nothing to do with the founder's experience and what he did in school. This comment here is show of complete narrowmindedness and discrimination. There would be 100's of new grads in your company who could kick ass in your position.

    You're already paying for leetcode - you don't need algo expert

      What do you struggle with? Have you done any mocks?

      I find myself scrambling for solutions during the interview that post interviews are so apparent to me. I’ve done mocks with friends and once with a stranger engineer on twitter.

    I think you’re better off combining Leetcode with something like Educative.io. Educative has interview prep material with the grokking series as well as some other nice courses.

    I wouldn’t trust him.

    Be careful who you look up to.

    I pay for AlgoExpert and I think it's a better product than LeetCode because of the IDE, the unit tests they give you, and every question has a solution. However I still pay for LeetCode to get the company specific questions.

      👆I have both AlgoExpert and Leetcode. I work on AlgoExpert when i want to practice in general, and on LeetCode when I prep for interview.
      Yes AE creator is a bootcampter, but he built a good product. The site is clean, supports 8 languages and has solution and video explanation for each question.
