Are there any labs?

I was wondering if there are any labs that can help us practice what we learn? Labs that are similar to code challenges in that they tell you if you have written the right code or not.

If not, are there any plans to come up with some labs?

Why not run your code locally or on codepen?

That would be like building my own code from scratch, which can be done. I was looking for code challenges on a bigger scale where a task needs to be completed and it can be checked to see if it's right or wrong?

Yeah, I would also like something like this. Or even a course that actually runs through the steps for building the site, from front-end to back-end, instead of courses that each build it showing us how to learn the language, opposed to really applying the language.

Such a thing doesn't currently exist on Treehouse. Sounds like a neat idea, though.

I guess the closest thing to this would be the new Workspaces http://teamtreehouse.com/workspaces

Close... but not what your after I'm sorry to say.

You might be interested in doing the projects on pairuptocode.com, they break down each project into a list of tasks and you complete it using codepen.

However like in the real world, there's no task checking, it's basically taking off the training wheels, your code either does what it's supposed to or not.
