Optimize This! Off-Platform Practice Project

Congratulations on completing your project! :tada:

Compare your project to the solution code (which is provided in the /solution folder in the project download) and share your project below! Your solution might not look exactly like ours, and that’s okay! The most important thing right now is to get your code working as it should (you can always refactor more later). There are multiple ways to complete these projects and you should exercise your creative abilities in doing so.

This is a safe space for you to ask questions about any sample solution code and share your work with others! Simply reply to this thread to get the conversation started. Feedback is a vital component in getting better with coding and all ability levels are welcome here, so don’t be shy!

How do I share my own solutions?

  • You can upload your project to your own GitHub and share the public link on the relevant project topic.

Do I really need to get set up on GitHub?

Yes, and trust us, it’s worth your time. Here’s why:

  1. Once you have your project on GitHub, you’ll be able to share proof of your work with potential employers, and link out to it on your CV.
  2. It’s a great opportunity to get your feet wet using a development tool that tech workers use on the job, every day.

Not sure how to get started? We’ve got you covered - read this article for the easiest way to get set up on GitHub .

Best practices for asking questions about the sample solution

  • Be specific! Reference exact line numbers and syntax so others are able to identify the area of the code you have questions about.
