Advent of Code, 2018 Edition

Here's a curated list of Advent of Code events for the 2018 holiday season. This is a living list, all PR's are welcome (and encouraged).

Wha?

An Advent of Code is like an advent calendar for nerds. First you might want to know what an Advent Calendar is - the TL;DR is it is normally a paper calender where there is a small treat hidden behind a perforated opening for each day in the month of December, leading up to the 25th. For our purposes though, instead of a physical calendar with candies, we get a coding challenge for each day - a great way to work some coding muscles and get exposed to new ways of writing software.

These calendars normally kick off on December 1, and each day presents a new challenge or task. Some of the websites in this list will not update until December 1, so this list may also grow extremely quickly just before the month of December kicks off.
