Meet The Noops
Love a challenge? The Noops are inexplicable machines that don’t do anything at all. Pick one, make it do something, and have fun with code. Sponsored by GitHub
Noopworld
Pinned Repositories
directbot
Up, down, left, right–patterns emerge if you follow the sequence.
drumbot
Drumbot loves drum machines so much that she made an API dedicated to them. Nothing would make her happier than for you to bring this API to life.
fizzbot
Fizzbot has questions for you... so many questions. A FizzBuzz API for you to play with.
golfbot
"Brevity is the soul of great code"—Shakespeare (pretty sure). Code Golf challenges, starting at 256 characters.
hexbot
Every request returns a different hex code—all 16,777,216 of them.
mazebot
Mazebot has mazes... a lot of mazes. Can you help it solve them?
melodybot
Melodybot brings a little swing to Drumbot's steady beat. Drumbot emits different beats, and Melodybot provides the melody to go on top of it.
starters
Guides and libraries to help you get started.
vexbot
Vextbot sends you nothing but vectors—two coordinates and a speed.
wordbot
There are 171,476 words in the English language, and Wordbot knows them backward and forward. Request a hundred verbs, a thousand nouns, or even a hundred dinosaur names, and Wordbot will deliver them in a tidy array.

noops-challenge/cambot
Cameras, microphones, and more—your device is alive with sensors. We've provided some starters to access the sensors on your camera; use the other Noop APIs to enliven the data with random colors, polygons, or sounds!
noops-challenge/pathbot
A maze without a map. Explore this API step by step.
noops-challenge/automatabot
Conway's Game of Life, via API. These little cells have a mind of their own. The Automatabot gives you a set of cells and their rules, and challenges you to predict their state after n iterations. IF you succeed, we'll give you a larger and more difficult set of cells.
noops-challenge/polybot
With every request, our Polybot will send you up to a thousand polygons from 3 sides (triangle) to 72 sides (a heptacontakaidigon!)
noops-challenge/chartbot
Noops, Inc. is a booming business that generates a ton of not-very-useful statistics. Help us visualize and analyze our nonsense datasets with this API.
noops-challenge/riddlebot
Request a set of strings from the API, decode them, and post them back to the API to see if they're correct. If you're right, we'll give you a harder set to solve.
noops-challenge/interviewbot
Like a whiteboard challenge, except more useless.
noops-challenge/ideabot
Ideabot wants to hear from YOU! Create an issue with an idea for a Noops challenge—an API, theme, or puzzle.
noops-challenge/mashbot
Mashbot is a very powerful little Noop that fuses the Noops together into a new mega-API. Request colors, polygons, vectors, and directions with a single call.
noops-challenge/sortbot
The Sortbot wants everything to be in order. This API sends you lists to sort—numerical, alphabetical, chronological, and all sorts of organized fun.
