Treehouse needs more help options when completing code challenges. Why is the only option to ask a question?

I would prefer links to Swift documentation or keywords to try searching. A big part of learning to code is learning how to find answers to questions when you get stuck. I would benefit from help finding resources.

If you are stuck, try searching for the topic in Apple's official Swift book which is very readable and has a lot of examples. You can also try searching on Stack Overflow and just plain old Google.

What really helped me is to try to do all of the challenges in the Playground which gives you instant answers and suggestions when you run into problems.

Also, often you can copy / paste the challenge into Google and it will immediately show you the answer in the Tree house community. ;)

I hope that helps,

Mike
