Extracredit

I'm not really sure of how the extra credit work. I always do everything on it, but I'm not sure if I'm supposed to send it somewhere or anything like that.

I'd like to know more about how it works.

Thanks a lot!

I believe it's just to further enhance your personal knowledge and do some real world work on the skills you just covered. :)

The "extra credit" is more of "extra personal credit" I'll call it. You don't get actual Treehouse points from it, but it helps you test your knowledge and apply the things you have learnt without the extra help you get from the instructor when watching the videos. That is also a good way to figure out if you really understand some of the concepts.
