The Code Editor
Each Bite opens in a browser-based code editor (CodeMirror) with:
- Syntax highlighting for Python
- Vim mode (toggle using the icon in the top-right of the editor)
- Tab support for multiple files when a Bite has helper modules
- Test output panel showing pass/fail results
Solving a Bite
- Read the exercise description and the function docstring
- Write your solution in the editor
- Click Test (or use
Ctrl+Enter) to run the test suite - If tests fail, review the output and adjust your code
- Once all tests pass, the Bite is completed and your score updates
