$25 a month - Is it not worth Customer Service?

$25 a month is a great sacrifice for some people. The Launchspace is still not working after 4 months, and a comment follow up would be

I agree whats above but anyways you wont find anything better than treehouse . Like seriously . Treehouse is like the best . Not only from my part, but it gives you basics, you have forum where its everytime active and just seriously dude xd it might have an issue right now or soemthing . The PRO treehouse would be awesome!

Check out this . Sure, there will be other content where else, youtube, etc.. but the code matters too and more .

Dont quit after one fail :) and no, im not advertising treehouse because im a student or something but im giving advice as i benefit alot and really , teamtreehouse is awesome! Lets have fun and happy coding!

Plus something quite little as that, come on! You will need a local server to work at the end ! or online server .

I am obviously here to state the obvious, you are not the only one on Team Treehouse. Sadly customer service is short for a company the size of Treehouse and things are not always completed immediately. They totally could have forget about the whole issue, but throwing your subscription fee and demanding customer service isn't the best way to go about solving an issue.

You are not required to use any workspaces or launchspaces on Treehouse. Those simple creations are programs that are virtuallized on a machine for you to use over the web, you can download these programs on your own for your own course.

Giving respect, gets you respect.

If you are looking to have php, I would recommend using XAMPP Web-server on your PC/Mac/Linux System

https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html - XAMPP Download

Simply download the program, install it and run it, you will need to run the Apache server. Once you start the apache server, click on the side "Explorer" or navigate to the directory which you installed xampp, in there is a folder called "htdocs", this will be where you place your files.

Download or use a text editor and save it as "index.php" and open your web-browser to "http://127.0.0.1/", save your work and refresh the page.

If you need any help, reply back.

Just use a text editor like sublimetext or notepad plus plus. Have local server run wamp or mamp because your doing the php route. Oops. That should be your sandbox editor.
