Land your next tech job. Off By One turns learning to code and coding interview prep into a five-minute daily habit. Real interview problems, taught the way you actually learn: step by step, with animated visualizations, guided code building, and complexity quizzes. You watch the algorithm move, then you build it yourself, then you prove you understand why it works. No copy-pasting into a judge, no walls of text. WHAT'S INSIDE • 64 guided lessons across 14 topics: arrays and hashing, two pointers, sliding window, stacks, binary search, linked lists, trees, tries, heaps, backtracking, graphs, dynamic programming, greedy algorithms, and intervals • Every lesson in Python, Java, and JavaScript, each written for that language by hand, never transliterated: the JavaScript version asks JavaScript questions, the Java version asks Java questions • Animated, step-by-step visualizations that show how each algorithm actually works: pointers travel, windows slide, trees traverse • Big-O time and space quizzes on every problem, so you can explain the "why" in the room, not just recite the code • 20 system design stories covering caching, load balancing, sharding, CDNs, rate limiting, database indexing, message queues, CAP, WebSockets, and more • A beginner intro for every topic, so you can start from zero and still end up interview-ready • Streaks, weekly progress charts, and an activity grid that keep you honest, five minutes at a time HOW A LESSON WORKS 1. Understand the problem and the approach in plain language 2. Watch the algorithm run, one step at a time 3. Build the solution yourself with guided code steps 4. Answer for its time complexity 5. Answer for its space complexity Finish a lesson and the next one is waiting: the curriculum is ordered so every topic builds on the one before it. WHO IT'S FOR • Complete beginners who want to learn to code with a clear goal • CS students preparing for internship and new-grad interviews • Self-taught developers filling the data structures and algorithms gap • Working engineers brushing up before the next interview loop START FREE Every lesson and story opens free: read the problem, watch the first steps, get a feel for it. Premium unlocks full visualizations, code building, complexity training, and system design. Off By One Premium is an auto-renewing subscription. Plans: annual with a 3-day free trial, monthly with a 3-day free trial, or weekly. Prices are shown in the app in your local currency. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at purchase confirmation, or when the free trial ends.

Read full description

Learn ethical hacking, penetration testing, web security, OSINT, Linux privilege escalation, and CTF methodology through hands-on interactive labs. Ethical Hacking Labs is built for beginners, cybersecurity students, developers, pentesters, Red Team professionals, and CTF players. Move beyond passive theory with structured learning paths, realistic simulated targets, a Linux-style terminal, practical investigations, and mission-based challenges. STRUCTURED LEARNING PATHS Progress from fundamentals to advanced exploitation through technical explanations, quizzes, and practical labs. • Web Security — SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, IDOR, SSRF, SSTI, API attacks, authentication flaws, command injection, file inclusion, and more. • OSINT — search methodology, usernames, public profiles, metadata, files, image and video analysis, Git history, evidence correlation, and investigation workflows. • Internal Security — network pentesting, Linux enumeration, services, processes, credentials, containers, runtime weaknesses, and privilege escalation. 90+ INTERACTIVE HACKING LABS Identify, exploit, verify, and understand vulnerabilities inside safe simulated environments. Practice techniques including: • SQLi, blind injection and command injection • Reflected, stored and DOM XSS • CSRF, authentication bypass and IDOR • SSRF, prototype pollution and API attacks • Linux enumeration, SUID, sudo abuse, cron and PATH hijacking • Docker, LXD, credential hunting and privilege escalation OSINT INVESTIGATIONS Practice structured open-source intelligence workflows involving search engines, public information, metadata, files, images, videos, Git history, encoding, evidence correlation, and advanced capstone investigations. HACKER ARENAS — CTF MODE Take on mission-based Arena challenges with chained vulnerabilities and no guided solution. Capture flags and prove your methodology under pressure. REALISTIC MOBILE TERMINAL • Linux-style command interface • Smart command and path suggestions • TAB completion • Simulated tools, filesystems, users, permissions, services and networks • Realistic command output and attack workflows • Core labs execute locally with no remote target required OPERATOR PROGRESSION • Earn XP and advance through hacker ranks • Unlock achievements and mastery records • Track learning paths and Arena missions • Optional cloud progress synchronization KEY FEATURES • Core training works offline • No advertising • Safe environment for legal and authorized learning • Multiple interface and terminal themes • Multiple supported languages • Regular new labs and technical improvements WHO IS IT FOR? • Beginners learning practical ethical hacking • Cybersecurity students • Developers learning how vulnerabilities work • Pentesters and Red Teamers refining methodology • OSINT learners • CTF players Ethical Hacking Labs is an educational cybersecurity simulator intended exclusively for defensive security education and authorized penetration testing practice. Enter the lab. Enumerate the target. Investigate the evidence. Exploit the weakness. Capture the flag.
