  • react-movie-directory

    Discontinued Movie Directory App of HackerRank Assessment - passed all test cases [UnavailableForLegalReasons - Repository access blocked]

  • Exactly, very weird DMCA.

    Repos like this were DMCA'ed https://github.com/saikrishnareddykatta/react-movie-director...

    I think the DMCA is incorrect but the copyright argument might be correct, as in, I imagine that the starting code was provided by HackerRank so they have the copyright. The solution is a whole different thing.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • React-Leaderboard

    Discontinued [UnavailableForLegalReasons - Repository access blocked] (by egfx)

  • My GitHub repo is on this list https://github.com/egfx/React-Leaderboard

    I was dumbfounded to receive this message yesterday. I made this project over 3 years ago and I didn’t even know about hacker rank at that time. This project was made because I was seeking a contract job and they asked me to create a leaderboard in react which i did with no code copying whatsoever. I implemented it in react hooks which wasn’t natively built into react so I used preact which had the newest feature set. If anything did hackerrank use my work to seed their tests? I see that as the likelihood. Also it could be because I used the text copy from the contracting job that asked me to create a leaderboard in the readme. In truth it could be either but this has become yet another pitch fork into a very difficult time where I have no job or money to do anything.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
