FAQ

How long does it take to complete the 30 Days of Postman challenge?

Plan to spend five to 45 minutes every day exploring the given topic for that day, and then dive deeper into the topics you find interesting. Go at your own pace. There is no penalty for taking longer. Note: If a very long period of time elapses from when you fork a challenge to when you submit the final solution, you may need to pull the latest changes to ensure the solution you submit is up to date.

Do I need to complete all 30 challenges?

Completing all 30 challenges is required to claim your 30 Days of Postman badge. You are welcome to dive into any of the topics that you find interesting. However, some challenges build on concepts introduced in earlier challenges. So you will receive less guidance for concepts covered earlier in the series.

I am new to code. Is this challenge for me?

The challenges are designed for developers and suitable for novice developers. If you know basic software programming concepts and beginner JavaScript (or some other programming language), this challenge is for you. If you’re an API professional but don’t identify as a developer, you may need to do extra research to complete some challenges.
