GrindMal - Contribute to Mini Projects & Weekly Coding Challenges πŸš€

Hey devs πŸ‘‹

I’m building GrindMal, a community-driven ecosystem for hands-on learning, real contributions, and skill growth.

Vision: GrindMal exists to turn practice into impact. Here’s what we’re building:

A central hub of mini-projects where anyone can submit a project, collaborate, and see contributions tracked.

Weekly challenges designed as real-world small projects or CLI tools, not just algorithm exercises.

A system that trains developers to review, reason, and improve code, not just copy solutions.

A language-agnostic, self-directed workflow, so you can learn by doing in any stack you want.

A living portfolio for contributors to showcase work, reasoning, and review skills.

What’s live now:

Projects Registry: Submit your own project or find open ones to collaborate on. Structured issue templates + GitHub PR tracking.

Weekly Challenges: Week 1 is live. Mini-project style, any language.

Contribution Guidelines: PRs validated for structure & naming. Reviews based on reasoning and correctness.
