Abstract

Regular coding practice is essential for placement preparation, yet manual monitoring of large student groups is inefficient, error-prone, and difficult to scale [1]. This paper presents an automated system that uses Python-based web scraping, platform APIs, and rule-based analytics to track daily coding activity on Skillrack, CodeChef, and LeetCode. Students are classified as active or inactive based on predefined targets, and personalized reminders are automatically delivered via WhatsApp or email to promote consistent practice [3, 14]. A 14-day pilot study with 30 students demonstrated increased participation, improved target completion, and an 88% reduction in mentor workload, validating the system’s suitability for institutional deployment [4].
