## Coding Challenges
## Curriculum
All our coding challenges are curated by the community, bringing in expert knowledge from volunteers like you.
Our curriculum is curated by the global freeCodeCamp community. This way, we are able to incorporate expert knowledge from volunteers like you.
You can help expand them and make their wording better. You can also update the user stories to explain the concept better or remove redundant ones and improve the challenge tests to make them more accurately test people's code.
You can help expand and improve the curriculum. You can also update project user stories to better-explain concepts. And you can improve our automated tests so that we can more accurately test people's code.

- We have a Node.js based API server.
- A set of React-based client applications.
- A script that we use to evaluate our front-end projects.
- a Node.js based API server
- a set of React-based client applications
- and testing scripts to evaluate camper-submitted curriculum projects.
Contributing to this requires some understanding of APIs, ES6 Syntax, and a lot of curiosity.
If you want to productively contribute to the curriculum, we recommend some familiarity with these tools.
Essentially, we expect basic familiarity with some of the aforementioned technologies, tools, and libraries. With that being said, you are not required to be an expert on them to contribute.
