What is Code Championship?
New to the sport? This quick video explains why we believe Code is Sport.
Get ready for a high-energy, friendly, and totally virtual coding competition!
Our tournaments are hosted entirely online. We use Google Meet to stay connected and the Code Championship website to build and battle. If you have a modern browser like Chrome or Firefox, you're already good to go—no downloads required!
Two days before each event, we'll email you the Google Meet link. While every tournament has its own unique flavor, here's a look at what a typical 2-hour event looks like.
