  1. Does anyone know if this tutorial is good? I'm at step 5 and struggling to understand what it's asking me to do. If anyone has already beat this challenge please let me know, it would help wonders.

    1. Hey Student,

      I'm currently up to step 21, and have found the tutorial becomes a lot easier to understand. My design currently looks spectacular, and this 'challenge' has almost been conquered. I truly believe if you put your mind to this, then you can do it.

      With the kindest regards,
      Another Student
