Tips for Better Results
- Works on any platform where the problem is visible on screen: LeetCode, HackerRank, CoderPad, Codeforces, and more.
- Make sure the full problem is visible before scanning. Full-screen the browser if needed.
- Multiple monitors: StealthCoder captures your primary display. If you use multiple screens, make sure the problem is on your main monitor before scanning.
- Click the problem window first to make sure it is focused, then trigger the scan.
- Minimize sidebars, ads, and popups. A cleaner screen gives better results.
- Use the overlay to guide your thinking, not to copy-paste directly. Type it out yourself and adapt the solution.
For system design interviews, switch to StealthDesign mode with Ctrl+Alt+Shift+M. It follows the standard FAANG format: Requirements, Estimation, Design, Deep Dive, and Trade-offs.
