Introduction
We love challenges that the community has to offer. The challenges consist of things that can be built BUT with constraints...

Challenge: Build a real-time, collaborative Code Editor, BUT it must be written entirely in WebAssembly (Wasm) with a custom rendering engine (no HTML DOM for the editor canvas).
Difficulty: Hard (Insane)
Description: The goal is to build a high-performance code editor that bypasses the standard browser DOM for text rendering to achieve desktop-level performance.
<canvas>.Note: I realize this is a massive, borderline-impossible ask. If you guys don't want to take this on, that is totally fine...
Request to Join:
I am incredibly interested in tackling challenges like this alongside the team. @francistrdev, would it be possible to get an invite to the organization so I can join the "DEVengers"?
I will keep the request into consideration since this org just started. Will let you know in this thread if anything. Thanks for the challenge. Assembly is crazy.
@bingkahu Hey bingkahu! You should see an invite to join the org! Let me know if anything!
Huh that's weird, I can't see anything... When I go to the Organization tab in settings I get a 404: Page doesn't exist. Is there a different way to accept invites as I don't see anything.
Can you check your email. Usually it notify you there.
Nope @francistrdev nothing in there.. Wonder if this is a bug.
Ok I resent it. Let me know!
Nothing... weird.
Maybe I will message the DEV team
Sounds good. This is what I see from my end. It's probably not immediate but this is what I see:
This is hilarious.... I can make posts under The DEVengers Org but I cant even access the Organizations menu as it returns a 404... I also haven't even accepted any requests as I have not received any. @ben any ideas...
I resent it again. Probably check the email tied to your Dev.to?
I have. It is not working.
@francistrdev I had this issue with The Foundation. Remove @bingkahu completely and then try resending.
@bingkahu If you go into Settings and then Organization, do you get an error message of some kind? First I had content not available in my region then something along the lines of page not found several days later. Once I was removed and re-added to the organisation that resolved the issue(s).
@richardpascoe When I click on "Organization" in settings I get:
Looks like this page doesn't exist or may not be published.
Okay, @bingkahu, that's good. If @francistrdev removes you from the organisation and re-adds you that should resolve it. You should then get an email invite. If not, I suggest one of you contacts support but I'm pretty sure it'll work. The error is caused by a fault in the invitation system that won't self-heal.
@richardpascoe When I click on "Organization" in settings I get:

Love this idea 🔥 constraints always make things more interesting.
One challenge I’d suggest:
Challenge: Build a useful web tool, BUT no login, no database, and everything must run in the browser.
Difficulty: Medium
It would really test UX thinking and simplicity instead of just backend power.
Excited to see what the community comes up with!
Challenge: Get 6 AIs to work together to create a game in HTML. This game could be a parody of another game, I don't know, maybe Hollow Knight or early Zelda?
Difficulty: Medium-hard
I don't know, maybe this will turn into chaos with the AI. It will either be fun or boring.
I think I might attempt this..
@embernoglow I have made a post about this now. Thanks for the inspiration. You can check out the post on my profile.
In fact, I was inspired by the YouTube channel Minimunch, where he makes similar videos.
I figured since I was looking up how it works lol
Challenge: Build a multiplayer inventory dashboard, BUT it must detect and visualize real-time data drift between sources without storing historical snapshots.
Difficulty: Hard
Description: Create a browser-based tool that connects to multiple mock APIs (e.g., Store A, Store B, Warehouse API) and continuously compares stock and price data.
Constraints:
Goal: focus on state synchronization, edge cases, and UX clarity under inconsistency.
Hey @francistrdev I sent an email to the email on your portfolio. It is concerning a post under DEVengers. If you could check it that would be great. Thanks!
