PureType is a platform for daily developer learning across a number of languages and technologies, with two main layers:
for feedback, code reviewers and IDE extensions that help to avoid common mistakes at the function/module level by developers still learning about a new language or technology
for follow-up, a web interface to review and build understanding through regular exercises and suggested activities, building on the feedback patterns observed
The goal is to give developers the structure and guidance they need to consistently grow and gain experience quickly.
With the knowledge landscape (available in PureType Professional), engineering managers can oversee, review and act on data about their team's capabilities.
See Supported languages and technologies.
Learning materials are available on the PureType web interface; however, first, PureType needs to be integrated with your existing code to generate this personalised knowledge journey.
There are integrations for different stages of your software development lifecycle, such as SCMs (e.g. GitHub) and IDEs (e.g. Visual Studio Code).
See SCM integrations and IDE extensions for more details about how to integrate PureType into your team's software development workflow.
PureType is a platform with a monthly subscription model per seat, with different pricing levels aimed at different use cases.
There are several pricing plans available, from Public (free) to Professional. See the pricing to compare plans.
