CodeChef Practice Tool
CodeChef is among the most popular competitive programming platforms despite that the platform lacks advanced search functionalities like searching problems using a set of tags, authors, contests.
This tool offers the advanced search functionalities lacking in the CodeChef platform. The data is scraped using CodeChef API (this API is not publically available though CodeChef does grant access to users who participate in certain hackathons). Unfortunately, this means that the database would not update automatically.
PS : Let me know if any one of you manages to hack an unofficial API on top of CodeChef.
