Find My Solutions To Previous Challenges

When I complete a challenge, I'd like to be able to go back and save the code snippet so I can see why it worked and use it for future reference.

However, if I pass a challenge, the code is instantly cleared and I get the "congrats, you passed the challenge" message. If I go back, I have to start the challenge from scratch again.

Is there a way I can see my solution after the challenge has been successfully completed?

Or is the only solution to work in a text editor and paste the code into the challenge, see if it works and, if not, go back to working in the text editor.

Hi there! I think that's your only solution, and it's the one I use. Right before I hit the "Check work" button, I copy and paste my text elsewhere in case it passed :smiley:

Hope this helps! :sparkles:

Thanks! I think my problem is that I'm usually very surprised when I actually pass a challenge (I'm always bracing for the "Bummer" message), so I always forget to keep a record of the solution :smiley:
