agentc vs. Staffcoder, hands-on practice for modern frameworks in a browser IDE

A minimal, static, embeddable AI agent in C - no libc, less than 1MB. - GitHub - abird-ai/agentc: A minimal, static, embeddable AI agent in C - no libc, less than 1MB. Sharing an agent that I built since most of the agents that's nice to work with, take hefty deps like node or is provider dependent.It's heavily inspired by the wonderful pi agent - and builds on it as something that you can run on tiny hardware or embed easily in your own binaries without needing it's hefty dependency chain.An agent doesn't really need much - a minimal networking stack, a TUI and an agent loop. Then comes tools, mcp, skills and prompts.agentc does exactly that - a minimal, static, embeddable coding agent in C - no libc, less than 1MB, starts up using <1...

Staffcoder helps developers build real-world engineering skills through hands-on framework practice and production-style challenges in a professional IDE. Hi HN,I'm Shashank. I have curated 1000s of practical real world software engineering assessments in the past as part of my job. I felt there's a gap where if a person wants to learn to build software they have many options to learn from (learning platforms and free resources) but very few or no options to practice their skills hands on. I built Staffcoder so that developers can learn the skills while solving real world scenarios across various domains in software engineering.On Staffcoder you can select a skill, start from beginner level and move up solving real world challenges.
