Looking for "extra easy" code challenges (JS). Anything I find on the web labeled "easy" is way too hard for me.

So after completing a few of the JavaScript courses here on Treehouse, I went looking for some coding challenges to start really using my brain. I've tried things like coderbyte and reddit.com/r/dailyprogrammer.

These challenges all have labels like "easy" or "medium" etc, but I can't even begin to solve anything labeled easy. I just have no clue where to start, and even after looking at the solution I sit there and scratch my head and tell myself that I would've never been able to figure that out.

Are there any challenges or things out there that I can try and solve that are more of an introduction to the harder concepts or problems?

Have you tried "Code Wars"?

I haven't been on there for a while, but I remember I skipped the first several levels because I was looking for more challenging code problems. But perhaps the first levels would be just what you are looking for.

Actually yes I just discovered this site, but I'm stuck on problem #2.

*correct the code so the greet function returns the expected value

function Person(name){
  this.name = name;
}

Person.prototype.greet = function(otherName){
  return "Hi " + otherName + ", my name is " + name;
}
