This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
Open-source competitive programming platform where users solve coding tasks head-to-head in real-time. Built by the Hexlet community. Supports 20+ programming languages via containerized execution.
- Backend: Elixir 1.20.4 / OTP 29.0.3, Phoenix ~1.8 with LiveView
- Frontend: React + Mantine 9 (CSS Modules), Zustand + TanStack Query, Inertia, Vite, Monaco Editor
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Code Execution: Docker/Podman containers per language (runner service)
- Package Manager: pnpm (not npm) for frontend
Single Elixir/Phoenix application at the repository root:
codebattle— Main Phoenix web app (backend + frontend assets)lib/codebattle/runner/— shared language metadata, checker generators, and local Docker executionimages/— language images with Zig HTTP runners
Frontend source lives in frontend/src/: Inertia pages in pages/, features in features/, theme in theme/. Static files (images, audio, fonts) live in static/ and are served at /assets/*; i18n strings are keyed by English text in priv/gettext/*/LC_MESSAGES/default.po.
See AGENTS.md for detailed module organization and core domain contexts.
make server # Start/enter the dev container and run Phoenix + Vite
make console # IEx in the dev container
make dev-shell # Shell in the dev container
make dev-exec CMD='mix help' # Run an arbitrary command in the dev containermake test # ExUnit + coverage (excludes image_executor)
make test-fe # Frontend typecheck + build
make test-code-checkers # Image executor tests (CODEBATTLE_EXECUTOR=local)
# Single Elixir test file:
make dev-exec CMD='mix test test/codebattle/game/context_test.exs'make format # mix format
make lint # mix format --check-formatted
make credo # Credo static analysis
make dialyzer # Type checking
make lint-js # OXLint (frontend)
make lint-js-fix # Auto-fix JS lint issuesmake setup # Full first-time dev-container setup
make dev-rebuild # Rebuild after a toolchain/container change
make db-setup # Create, migrate, and seed database
make db-migrate # Apply pending migrationsThe Make targets run through bin/dev. From the host it starts and enters the
Compose-backed dev container; from inside that container it executes directly.
Do not mount host Docker sockets or credential directories into the app service.
- Elixir: enforced by
mix formatand Credo (120-char line limit) - TypeScript: OXLint (
frontend/.oxlintrc.json),tsc --noEmit - Coverage threshold: 60% minimum (ExCoveralls)
GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/master.yml): runs ExUnit, Credo, Dialyzer, format check, frontend lint + typecheck + build, then builds and pushes container images to ghcr.io/hexlet-codebattle/.
