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

Blur sensitive data automatically when you share your screen. A free Chrome extension that hides emails, phones and IDs on your device, with no account. Hi folks, I'm Vicky. I build privacy tools that use local AI, on late nights and weekends.Smart Blur is a Chrome extension that blurs sensitive info on any web page before anyone else sees it. There are already a few tools like this, so why another one? Two reasons:Local AI for unstructured PII.

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.
