I stretched my coding skills (if yes what did you learn?): [I wasn't familiar with argparse, so it was great to get some experience there. (I used an excellent introduction to argparse from Ken Youens-Clark's book, "Tiny Python Projects" (2020).) It seems like a really nice way to get some working projects on the go, before possibly moving them to the browser.

And, it was a good exercise in using the datetime material I've covered in Talk Python Training's "#100DaysOfCode in Python" course. One of the suggested projects on Day 3 was this challenge!]

Other feedback (what can we improve?): [These Challenges seem like a great feature of PyBites — I'm very keen to keep building lots of projects while I'm learning — but I had no idea they were here. PyBites is a great platform, I feel really positive about using it, but I sometimes find it a little hard to navigate around, or find the last Bite I was on, and so on. And this seems like another example of that — a really positive part of the package that was tucked away, out of sight (to me, at least).]

Thanks @mtripney for your feedback. We wanted to emphasis the Bites more as being the main feature of the platform.

Blog code challenges are still linked under the dashboard, but that's not obvious. Where would you link them?
