Workspaces only in Tree house?

Is Workspaces unique to TeamTreeHouse.com ? Can workspaces be use outside of TreeHouse? I inferred form one answer Workspaces is unique and only usable to TreeHouse. So as long as I am a student I can use Workspaces? Thank you for your response.

Hi Dale! Yeah workspace is an unique feature of Treehouse...so if you want to work with files outside treehouse you should look for a text editor :).

Yes, Workspaces is a product created by Treehouse. You may also want to look into other online text editors such as JSFiddle and Codepen, which are great because you can test code and share the link so others can fiddle with it as well.

When you are developing a project that is not part of a Treehouse tutorial I would suggest getting comfortable working locally on you machine with some installed text editor like Sublime Text.

Just to add to what Julian Aramburu and Erik Krieg said, there are many web based code editors and development environments. A list of a few others can be found here http://www.awwwards.com/10-html-css-online-code-editors-for-web-developers.html .
