Swenest
Deliberate debugging and refactoring practice on real codebases for engineers
About Swenest
Swenest turns the daunting task of stepping into an unfamiliar codebase into guided engineering practice. Users start from focused bug, feature, refactoring, or testing tasks in real codebases, make small changes locally, trace behavior and form hypotheses with progressive hints, then submit their reasoning and a structured fix plan for feedback, carrying the patterns they master to the next codebase.
