What are challenges and how do I do them?

Challenges are the building blocks of DIY. They're carefully designed to help you level up your skills by honing your expertise and inspiring you to try something new.

 

There are 2 types of Challenges on DIY:

1. Challenges 

2. Live Challenges

 

1. Challenges :

To post under a challenge:

1. Pick a challenge you want to complete.
2. Make your awesome project.
3. Head to the page of the challenge you chose, scroll to the bottom and hit the green “Post” button.
4. Upload your awesome project.

2. Live Challenges:

To participate in a live challenge:

1. Head to the challenge section once again.
2. The first row you will see is called "Live Workshops"
3. Live Workshops are Live Challenges where you can teach/learn different skills over a Zoom Call.
4. To Join a Live Challenge, pay close attention to the timer that will tell you the "Date & Time" of the live challenge you want to attend.
5. Once it's time for the Live Challenge, click on the challenge and a green button will appear asking you to "Join Now" and that's it! Make sure to keep Zoom pre-installed on your device!
