My preview is looking completely different than the video. Pretty sure code is the same except for colour. Please help.

sorted out. Thank you

What are you trying to do?

Glad You got it! Happy coding!

Caleb, you seem to be advanced on all the treehouse tracks. Nice job man. I just started the trial. I have an idea for a web/app similar to the size, design and functionality of airbnb. I am planning to cover all the treehouse tracks and apply whatever is relevant. From your experience so far, do you believe the tracks provided would help me in setting up something like that?

Cheers

Is this a web app, or a mobile app? If so iOS or android?

i'm looking at web first, then iOS quickly after and android later.

I have not done the Rails track ( I did the 'Learn Ruby' track ), so I don't know on that one. The iOS tracks (Swift and Objective-C) are good, although the Obj-C one has some outdated courses; They won't do you any good if you don't try to implement them which is the hard part ( I'm work on that right now ). All I have any idea how to do in android is put an app on the google play store. And I have not heard of airbnb.

Thanks for the feedback. Let's see what comes out of this :) And i recommend checking airbnb

What is it?

I found it, vary neat.

please don't tell me you've never heard of uber too

Nope. I do know about zippo though!!!
