You may want to look at exercism.io and see how they are doing. They had (non-frontend) challenges and then people could submit solutions.

Recently, they changed to a mentoring-based system. The challenges remained, but now there were mentors to offer feedback and advice to users before determining whether the user was ready to go to the next challenge.

Your site is still growing, but maybe that is something for you to consider in the project's future.

I really think you should leave the platform the way it is. I've been searching for somewhere where I can practice my UI development skills. This site satisfies that immensely

Yo Kenan the site looks awesome! I've been looking for this coding challenges to keep practicing but most of the sites out there focus on programming languages for solving algorithms, which is cool but not related to what I wanted to (getting practice
in HTML, CSS).

This might very well be the end of my search and I'm already seeing some of the ways it could be very useful (think I will be replacing my codepen account soon) ;)
