3. CSSBattle

This one is specific to CSS, but its gamification system is a great way to track your progress and continue learning, they even give away some merchandise at the end of some battles, which is always a great motivator.

The battles on there aren't necessarily going to tell you how to create web layouts, but they will definitely help you tackle some of the more intermediate CSS properties.

4. Treehouse

6. CodePen Challenges

The great thing about CodePen challenges is that they provide prompts for nearly a variety of languages and technologies. HTML, CSS, Javascript, Flutter, you name it. What's even better is that you get to share your solutions with everyone who's participated in the challenges, give, and receive feedback on your solution.

This may not be a structured way to learn, but looking at other people's code is a great way to get inspired and perhaps learn something you may have not known.
