apigee and webshell courses are created and maintained by those companies (our platform lets anyone create courses), so it's unfortunately up to them to edit -- we'll ping them regardless.

i'm the cofounder and ceo of codecademy -- would love to hear what everyone thinks!

it's going live on monday

which are you finding errors in? we keep a pretty vigilant watch on broken exercises (there's a dashboard in our office and we respond to bug reports as well) -- would love to fix these ASAP. thanks!

thanks for all of this feedback. we're launching some stuff next week that will help you get even closer to realizing all of this -- it gets you out of the terminal (the main UX now for users) and explains a lot more about the concepts you're learning.

would love to hear your feedback when this goes live!

can you shoot us a bug report so we can look into this?
