Adding steps to your program

There's no limit on the number of steps you can add to your online program. Each step should inspire participants, enriched with multimedia like videos, images, audio, and code embeds. This caters to diverse learning styles, deepening comprehension.

Note:

Steps added for future days go into the program curriculum. Steps added for past days are marked as "missed" for existing participants, and are hidden from those who have completed the program.
