Welcome to the coctus wiki!

What is this? What does it do? How does it work?

Coctus is a command-line tool designed to inspect and play Codingame's Clash of Code and I/O puzzles locally in the terminal. It stores clashes (or puzzles) in a directory on the user's computer (~/.local/share/coctus/clashes/ on Linux by default, but you can use coctus status to see the path on your system). The puzzles are stored in JSON format as returned from CodinGame API. You can add puzzles to this directory manually or download them from CodinGame by using the coctus fetch command. Other coctus subcommands don't require network connection as they use clashes/puzzles from this directory which allows you to play without internet connection.

If you want to learn more about how you can use the tool please refer to the User guide.

If you are interested in building coctus from source and/or contributing to coctus you can read more in the Developer guide.
