Advent of Code Submit plugin

Effortlessly solve, build, and submit your Advent of Code solutions directly from IntelliJ IDEA!

🎯 Purpose

This project is a JetBrains IntelliJ plugin designed to streamline the Advent of Code experience for Kotlin and Java enthusiasts.

With this plugin, you can:

• automatically build and run your solution for any day of the event.
• submit your answers directly to Advent of Code without leaving your IDE.

Whether you're a competitive solver or just enjoying the holiday coding fun, this plugin saves you time and lets you focus on solving puzzles.

To submit your solutions, you need to log in into your Advent of Code account using the AOC tool window. The plugin will store your session cookie in the IDE's secure storage, so you don't have to log in every time you want to submit an answer.

At the moment, the plugin can only submit Java or Kotlin solutions. If you're using another language, you can still use the plugin to view the puzzles and download the inputs, but you'll need to submit your answers manually.

The inputs are downloaded into the .aoc folder in your project root. The plugin will automatically create this folder if it doesn't exist.

📝 TODO list
