Hi Codeforces!

The top 1% are able to effectively use insights from old problems to solve new problems. Multiple exceptional problem solvers such as SuperJ6 (codeforces [cf] master, top 1%), Geothermal (CF international grandmaster, top 0.02%), and Colin Galen (CF grandmaster, top 0.18%) all recommend reflecting on key ideas/observations 💡 after solving problems in order to be able to tackle new problems in competitive programming.

Therefore, I created this AI platform called 🌠 Starlight Problem Solving to allow problem solvers to:

• 🙋 Share these key insights/observations as well as hints for over 20,000 problems including Codeforces, USA Computing Olympiad, American Math Competitions (AMC) 8/10/12/AIME/USA(J)MO, AtCoder and DMOJ
• 🧠 Summarize key insights/hints with artificial intelligence (AI/ML) and see the key insights that other top problem solvers are thinking of a problem.
• 🔍 Find similar problems based on insight(s) of one problem to continue practicing insights/observations you struggled with applying/seeing in a problem.
• 🤔 See hints to be able to take more away from more time spent on hands on problem solving.
• 📕 A Journal to store the statuses of all problems you are solving and the key insights used making it convenient to use this website. ( Help out other problem solvers by using this feature to store the key insights for each problem you solve! Also feel free to contribute hints) Join the website → starlightps.org

🏗 In the future, I hope to work with others to build these exciting things:

• An AI tool to predict the key insights/observations of problems
• With enough data, summarize key insights/observations commonly used in certain types of contests (e.g. USACO Gold contests, codeforces problems with rating around 1900) to help people know the insights/observations required to successfully apply those algorithms to achieve their competitive programming goals 🏆 and give more structure 🧗.
