Are there any resources to practice the things we've learned as we complete lessons? The quizzes and challenges are helpful, but how can I fiddle around/practice what I've learned on my own?

Treehouse TeacherHi there, Kim! It seems you're working on learning HTML and CSS. You can practice on your home computer using a simple text editor. However, I might suggest Visual Studio Code which is both free to download and use and is available both for Mac and Windows. There are others as well and this simply depends on your personal preference.
If you're looking to see some immediate results from your code and possibly work from a tablet, I might suggest using CodePen. The basic account there is free to use as well. It's a great playground and you can create as much as you like. I've even been known to sit and code on my iPad while waiting at a doctor's office or the like.
And since you are working on front-end development, why not start on your portfolio site? You're going to need one eventually!
Hope this helps!
