Leaderboard

What it shows

Each row of the leaderboard shows a learner's rank, name, current badge, total XP, completed practice challenge count, and completed learn scenario count. You appear in the list yourself and can see exactly where you sit relative to the rest of your team.

How rank is calculated

Rank is a straightforward sort by total XP, descending. Ties are broken by completed-challenge count, then by completed-scenario count, then by user creation date. There is no decay; cumulative XP is the score. If you take a break and someone else passes you, you can still pass them back without losing anything.

Visibility

The leaderboard is on by default for new organizations. Your org admin can turn it off from Organization Settings — when they do, the panel disappears from the home page and from /leaderboard. Org admins still see it from the dashboard, with a Hidden badge reminding them that learners cannot.

Some organizations turn the leaderboard off because their culture or HR policy discourages public peer comparison. If you do not see one and you think you should, ask your admin — it is a single toggle.

A note on competition

Leaderboards exist to nudge engagement, not to gatekeep careers. If you find yourself focused on the rank number more than on the material, the platform is failing at its job. The right use is as a faint background indicator that you are or are not keeping up with your team — the foreground signal should be the per-topic average score on your own profile, which actually predicts your day-to-day code review behaviour.
