<h1>How it works</h1>
<h1>Practice code with non-trivial codebases</h1>
<p>
Work through tickets/challenges like a real programmer does on the job. Codecorgi provides
simulation project management tickets for you to build real products and
grow your developer portfolio.
Everything's great ‘in theory’, but when
it comes to coding at a best companies,
most bootcamps (and lame organizations)
leave you with little real life knowledge
or new industry skills. We create
challenges that simulate the latest
technology so you’ll have an edge over
the competition.

In real life you’d never code on a
website instead of your computer - so
why practice like that? All
challenges can be downloaded straight
to your computer, so you can work on
