Adding practical content

You can add exercises to your lab in two ways:

• Automatically — in this case you use the exercise generator functionality to generate an exercise folder pre-filled with files and then edit it. See Automatically generating an exercise.
• Manually — in this case you manually create a new folder for your exercise and fill it with files and content. See Manually creating an exercise.

There are two types of practical exercises:

• Multi-step — these exercises contain several sequential steps (like the thermometer example exercise) and are typically recommended for beginners who need step-by-step guidance to solve a problem. See Adding tests for multi-step exercises for the details on how to configure test settings for multi-step exercises.
• Single-step — these exercises contain only a single instruction (like the leap example exercise) and are typically recommended for advanced learners who can provide a complete solution independently. See Adding tests for single-step exercises for the details on how to configure test settings for single-step exercises.
