CodePen Training – Mastering CodePen: Project Setup

🔥 In Part 2 of our Mastering CodePen training series, we walk you through setting up your first CodePen Project—a more structured workspace than a single Pen, perfect for building full web applications, multi-file components, or complex demos.

✅ What you’ll learn in this video:
✔️ Difference between a Pen and a Project in CodePen
✔️ Creating a new CodePen Project from scratch
✔️ Adding and organizing multiple files (HTML, CSS, JS, assets, etc.)
✔️ Folder structure best practices for scalability
✔️ Linking stylesheets, scripts, and importing assets (images, fonts)
✔️ Enabling preprocessors like SCSS, Babel, or Pug for modern syntax
✔️ Saving, previewing, and publishing your Project
✔️ Using the live preview pane to test changes instantly

💡 Why CodePen Projects Are Powerful:
🔹 Let you work with multiple files like in real dev environments
🔹 Great for portfolio projects, templates, and learning exercises
🔹 Perfect bridge between simple Pens and full local dev environments
🔹 Keeps code modular and organized for long-term projects
