Show HN: Supercharge your front-end skills by building real projects

Hey everyone,<p>I’m a Front-end&#x2F;JavaScript developer and web development instructor at General Assembly in London. Over the years I’ve seen lots of students who struggle to find projects to practice on once they’ve learned the fundamentals of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

<p>So I built Frontend Mentor as a place where people can come to improve their front-end skills whilst using a real-life workflow. Each challenge provides mobile &amp; desktop designs, assets, starter code, project brief, and a front-end style guide. The rest is up to the individual.<p>All challenges are free and there’s a Slack community if you need any help on one of the projects.<p>I’ve literally just launched this last week, so I’d love some feedback if you can spare the time.<p>Thanks for taking a look!

I like the idea, and congrats on the launch!<p>The resource page you put together looks high quality.<p>One suggestion is to make each challenge focus on one thing, like flexbox (or even layout in general), font etc. I saw you are giving feedbacks on twitter, which is awesome. Maybe you could collect all the solutions and your feedbacks for each challenge, present them nicely on your site, and maybe also highlight what can be learned from each of them.

I like this project. It&#x27;s hard to find high-quality mockups that are free for learners like me to use

Do you plan to monetize it?

Congrats on shipping! I was looking for something like this...<p>Is it possible to get feedback on the built-code? Do you have any feature down the line that will let people submit &quot;solved&quot; challenges and get feedback on their code from real front end developers?<p>That way, it would help catch bad coding practices early... or maybe you could include a standard solution with each challenge, kind of like how PluralSight courses have a &quot;Before&quot; and &quot;After&quot; folders, with the &quot;After&quot; folder containing the completed code.
