Project Files

Where did the project files come from? Are those files that would have to be manually created?

If there are project files that need to be downloaded they should be provided in the Download Files link that appears right under the start discussion button on the right of the screen when you're viewing the site from a non mobile device. It would appear lower down the page on a mobile device. On the video you linked from there are Project files listed. If you download them and stuff is missing, please let me know!

Majority of Treehouse project files are used to help follow the tutorial. Many of the project files are created from scratch.

Hi Jennifer, I believe those are just for demonstration and reference purposes. Usually the courses have challenges to go along with the quizzes but perhaps that wasn't possible in the back-end. You should be able to use the project files somewhat like notes while taking quizzes.

Right. I know the project files are there for practice, but I was curious as to how those particular ones came about. Later in the video, there was mention of another tutorial on creating themes. Thanks for your reply guys!

I think the best person to ask would be Zac. He's usually pretty good at responding to questions. (I think they have a new Wordpress course coming out soon) and here's how you can tag someone.
