Why don’t you use a keyboard to type the text and make it actually readable?

The content might be interesting but the barrier to understand it seems unnecessarily high to the point I don’t want to invest time to figure out if it’s worth it or not.



I was trying to recreate the in person white boarding experience, but that probably isn't the move here since the candidates are having a ton of trouble writing legibly, making the coding portion almost useless for the video. I can't read it myself even when I'm in the environment.

I'm probably going to NIX the actual whiteboarding portion and lean more into a text based approach based off all the feedback here.
