Using the Purple Edge Lab
beginner 20 min 3 tasks
A guided tour of the lab experience: deploy, open the console, watch the timer, submit an answer, and end the lab.
By the end of this lesson you can deploy a lab from a lesson page, open the browser console to a lab machine, understand the 4-hour time limit, submit a flag in the answer box, and end a lab when you are done.
This is a tour only: no lab machine is started in this lesson, so there is nothing to break and nothing to wait for. In lesson 9 you will do all of it for real.
