For the second year in a row, JetBrains will be sponsoring Advent of Code in 2022.

It’s a great way to practice your problem-solving, keep your Kotlin skills sharp, compete, and learn from the fantastic community surrounding the event. And it’s a wonderful way to get your hands on some exclusive Kotlin prizes! 🎁

I am honored to be able to participate in Advent of Code in Kotlin (even if it is squeezed between newborn naps 👨‍🍼 and I am always it seems a day or so behind 😅). I am so proud of JetBrains as a company for continually lowering the bearer of entry for learning programming with their amazing community products (Python and PyCharm were the catalyst that sparked my development passion), their amazing innovation, diligence and support and last, but certainly not least, their awe-inspiring response to the invasion of Ukraine 🇺🇦 (update: https://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2022/12/06/update-on-jetbrains-statement-on-ukraine/). Thank you for all you do - it does not go unnoticed from the community! ❤️
