Description
I built Code Review Lab to help engineers practice secure code review skills. Many friends looking to switch into AppSec struggled with interview code review exercises. While there are great resources for other interview types, I couldn't find a good platform focused specifically on secure code review.The platform offers interactive challenges where you review actual vulnerable code snippets (Go, PHP, etc.) and identify the exact lines with security issues. Each challenge includes context about the application and hints to guide your learning.
