For the Intro to Programming and JavaScript Foundation courses, can you please have the project files contain some code to start? Not the completed ones, but at least the html file should reference the .js file (with code contained) at the bottom.
I find it frustrating to pause a video before the start of the lesson, and type the source codes in myself in my text editor (not Workspaces). Plus, each topic is different (scope, math, etc.) and I have to create separate .html files and name them accordingly.

Can you do me a favor and send an email help@teamtreehouse.com and let them know that the files are missing from this course.

10,419 PointsWell, I would like to post this to Jim's profile (if there is a way to do that). Other instructors in my Front-End Web Development track had some files prepared for the lessons with some code for me start, and I type the codes in as the lesson progresses. I use Brackets as my text editor, btw.
I'm NOT asking the instructor to complete the codes for me, just to be clear.

Yep, Treehouse has improved methodology quite a bit over time. If memory serves this was one of the first Treehouse course's ever made.
As a matter of fact, this course is being re-done and the new version is due out later this month (October 2014)

10,419 PointsI like the upcoming course curriculum better! However, I've already taken the JavaScript basics and moved on to the jQuery. The Front-End Web curriculum changed at least 3 times already, since I started in July. I know that they split the HTML tables and forms up from the previous Intro to HTML course.
