Lab FAQ
Do I need my own AWS account?
No. Pro members get pre-configured sandbox accounts. Free tier learners can still join with their own AWS account for select labs.
What about infrastructure costs?
Pro labs run in OneAWS accounts at no extra cost. Self-managed labs average $1-$5 and always include cleanup scripts.
What if I get stuck?
Each mission pairs walkthrough videos with troubleshooting guides, plus community and live mentor support for Pro members.
How do I know if labs are safe?
Every lab ships with automated guardrails, spending limits, and isolated resources - your production workloads stay untouched.
Can I repeat labs?
Absolutely. Re-run missions as often as you like to build muscle memory and track time-to-complete improvements.
