Oso Golf: 9 programming puzzles

Hi all! one of the makers of Oso Golf here :)

Authorization is a challenge for everyone, but has been solved by no one. As the people who wake up thinking about authorization each day we created Oso Golf, a game to help educate the developers about authorization.

We built the first iteration for this game for GraphQL summit, as a fun way for developers to learn Oso’s policy language. Attendees got really into the game, hanging out at our booth for upwards of 30 minutes to solve this with their friends.

So we got some feedback on the game and built it out into 9 “holes,” just like a Golf course, each hole teaches you a different principle of authorization modeling. We’re opening this up to the community today and are excited to see what you think!
