The Blind Post That Started it All
I’ve been a front-end engineer for over 12 years. Yet, I’ve somehow avoided LeetCode my entire career. With the recent change in the job market, I acknowledged how much this limited my options. To motivate me, I sought a more social group on the tech forum Blind to keep me accountable.The response was overwhelming. In the absence of a suitable option, I took the initiative to create one. Fortuitously, a community member provided us with a temporary space, and our inaugural event attracted 26 participants, ranging from students to seasoned professionals. The enthusiasm and self-organization within the community to teach one another, including splitting up into a course where someone taught beginners the fundamentals, was incredibly inspiring.
