The idea here was to implement some sort of gamification by giving users "points" for completing various tasks. Things like completing lessons and codeblocks, logging in multiple days in a row (streaks) or sharing a codeblock with friends.

We ultimately decided on a simpler form of tracking progress (the progress bar and visual indication of island completion).

Implementing a more complex XP system would require significant design, development (both front-end and back-end) as well as database changes.
