In addition to our default code editor, whiteboard, and spreadsheet tools, you can toggle to the VS Code editor or load a VS Code project during an interview.
Using the VS Code editor is recommended to use for the following use cases:
- Opening public or private GitHub repos via URL
- Launching multiple terminals
- Installing arbitrary packages and libraries
- Running front-end or back-end interviews that require a server
- Running QA/Automation projects that require libraries Selenium or Playwright
To load a saved question into the VS Code editor click load data in the top navigation while the interview is open.
Load private GitHub repo into an interview
If you need to load a private repo into an interview, first create a take-home project using the VS Code IDE. When on the edit page, you can authenticate via GitHub and load your private repo directly into the IDE, then click save.
In an interview, click load data at the top and select your VS Code take-home project you created to load the private repo into the live interview.
