From the Codewars Community Code of Conduct:

Please do not post your solutions on Github. We realize you would like to use these challenges as your resume, but you should have side-projects for that. If a Code Warrior is unable to find a solution online, then they are further encouraged to complete the task themselves - which will enable them to get more value out of their time spent.

Therefore, I would like to request for this repo to be made private, or at least state unambiguously in the README that:

  • Codewarriors are strongly encouraged not to look at your solutions to Kata until they have completed it themselves or at least took the time to think about their own approaches
  • Codewarriors should not submit your solutions as their own
  • You will not be accepting contributions of any form to this repo
  • Creating a repository like this is discouraged by Codewars

You are not obliged to abide by this request since this is your own work; however, cooperation on your part would be much appreciated.

Thank you for reaching me out and mentioning me in the "List of confirmed cheaters." It's an honor to be highlighted among other 13,982 repositories (results by a "codewars" term on GitHub only).

I'd like anyone would use this public repository as the source of information and for educational purposes only, not for cheating. BTW, does "cheaters" earn any money from this act on the Codewars platform? How is that possible? o_O

Please consider the following commit. You are totally allowed to reopen this issue and start the discussion. Just in case.

Thank you for your time and efforts in improving the Codewars platform!
