Advent of C#

An aspiring Advent of Code problem solving framework, offering a beginner-friendly ecosystem and large functionality. It aims to aid users into primarily focusing on the core of solving this marvelous event's problems, leaving the need for building their own infrastructure aside.

What is Advent of Code?

Advent of Code is an annual event running during December 1 through 25, presenting one two-part problem every day. Users are challenged to write a working solution for their personalized input, given the problem's description. More information on the website.

Donating

Donations are welcome on the specified links, and would be greatly appreciated. It is also planned to give a portion of 3% of the total donations to the event itself.

  • Clean and colorful console interface
    • Running problems for specific day
    • Validating problem solutions
    • Execution time per part
    • Summary of all available solutions, and per individual parts
  • Answer conversion system, producing answer strings ready to be copied onto the website
  • Detailed part solution status declaration and tracking
  • Custom part solvers (fanmade "Part 3" problems, easter eggs, and more)
  • Source analyzers that ensure correct usage of the framework

Upcoming features:

  • Benchmarking
  • and more
