ReCoding Club

Recraft.AI is a London-based startup focused on creating amazing AI tools for designers.

Many of our engineers are ICPC alumni and enjoy programming contests so much that we decided to launch our own series of training sessions. Expect challenging problem sets, discussions with ICPC world finalists and champions and all-in-all enjoyable times together. The club is a part of UKIEPC Local clubs.

Our training sessions focus on algorithms, data structures and their applications in practical problem solving.

Sign up to be informed of the upcoming training sessions and contests or contact us at [email protected]

Location: LABS Atrium, Stables Market, Chalk Farm Rd, London, NW1 8AH

Upcoming sessions

We meet on Saturdays, a session generally starts at 12 PM and ends around 4 PM.

During the session, participants get a problem set. We discuss theoretical the necessary material before going into individual or team-based problem-solving. Our coaches are available to help with any challenges and discuss solutions that prove to be the most difficult or interesting to the group.

There's usually a pizza break in the middle of the session to help everyone keep their strengths :)
