How to join a class

A quick guide for participants. No account or sign-in needed.

Join a class

  1. Get the class code from your instructor (a short code like k7m4qp), or a direct join link that looks like /c/k7m4qp.
  2. If you have a link, just open it. Otherwise go to the join page, type the code into the box, and select Join class.
  3. You'll land on the class page showing your instructor's latest code snippets.

View & copy snippets

  • The newest snippet appears at the top, labelled Latest. The page keeps the 10 most recent, so you can catch up if you joined late.
  • Your instructor may give a snippet a short title (e.g. Exercise 3: binary search), shown above the code. Snippets without one just show the time they were shared.
  • The page updates automatically — when your instructor shares something new, it shows up without you needing to refresh.
  • Select the Copy button on a snippet, then paste it into your editor. Indentation, tabs, and blank lines are kept exactly as the instructor pasted them, so whitespace-sensitive languages like Python stay correct.
  • Code is colour-highlighted when your instructor tags its language. The colours are for reading only — Copy always gives you the plain original text. Long lines scroll sideways within the snippet box; plain-text notes wrap instead.

Troubleshooting

  • “Not found” page?Double-check the code with your instructor — codes are all lowercase and don't contain the letters o, i, or l (to avoid confusion with zero and one).
  • Nothing new showing up? Check your internet connection, then reload the page — it will re-load the latest snippets and reconnect for live updates.
