Frontend Mentor
Real design files and a brief, then you build it and get community feedback. It solves the specific problem of not knowing what to build once tutorials run out.

What it is
A library of front end challenges, each supplying a professional design, assets and a written brief, with a community that reviews submitted solutions.
The problem it solves
After tutorials, most learners stall on what to build. Inventing a project means inventing the design too, and the result is usually something that does not look like professional work. Being handed a real design removes that and shifts the challenge to implementation, which is what needs practising.
Where the value actually is
The feedback loop. Building in isolation entrenches habits; having someone point out that your markup is unsemantic or your layout collapses at a tablet width is how those get fixed. Review other people's submissions as well, which teaches more than receiving reviews does.
Best for: beginners and career changers building a portfolio, particularly on the CSS side.
