when using codepen with these lessons. I don't see how to add files an folders as Guil is not using codepen in the video

I can upload the project files in an editor like notepad++ but then I won't have the ability to preview. the only editor that has everything is Workspaces, yet why is code playground preloaded with the project files and it doesn't have the functionality in it to follow along with everything Guil is doing?

The way that I'm using for the preview is just go to file that is call index.html and select 'Open With' and I use to select Google Chrome.

Hi Coy,

Personally,

I prefer to download the project files and use it in sublime text 2, which is free and allows you to preview so long as all of your files are in the same folder you have your stylesheets and index in.

I like having the ability to save my work and go back later in my own editor, also the color coding in this editor is a very nice touch and makes it easy for me to separate what is going on in the code.

I know this isn't a direct answer to your question regarding code playground, but it is an alternative solution that works for me.
