Hello, I've struggled a lot with this challenge. I have a few specific questions but also welcome any other feedbacks.

1- I use setTimeout so that the form is clear before the alert pops up, will there be any issue? If I use promise instead, how can I do this? Any other way that you guys did to clear out the form after successfully submitted?

2- I learned from someone else how to do this linear background but I'm still very confused about how to achieve it. Is there any good tutorial on this topic that you'd recommend? How do you just look at this background design and know which colors to use for the linear gradient?

This is my second project using JS. Your feedbacks will help me learn a lot so I hope to receive some comments on this project. Thank you in advance :D

Hi, First of all congtratulations on completing this challenge. Tho there are few things you need to change which I am going to point out:

  • When ever you use form rather that adding the eventListner on the submit-button add the eventListerner on the <form> element. When we click on button with type submit(that is very important) form automatically get submitted.
  <form  class="email-input-wrapper" id="form"> // no need to mention action
            <input
              id="user-input"
              name="email"  // with this we can extract the value of input. 
            />
            <button type="submit" id="submit-button">
              <img src="images/icon-arrow.svg" alt="" />
            </button>
          </form>
const formEl = document.getElementById("form")

formEl.addEventListner("submit", (event) => {
   event.preventDefault() ;// form has default behaviour of going to differnt url for submission. We need to avoid that 

   const valueEntered = event.target.email.value ; // using the name to extract the value

   //DO ALL THE CHECKING HERE...ONCE EVERYTHING IS OKAY..YOU CAN CLEAR THE INPUT
   //FOR THAT YOU DONT HAVE TO USE ANY TIMER. JUST RESET THE VALUE LIKE THIS.
    event.target.email.value = "";
  • For gradient you can refer to https://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_gradients.asp or https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/gradient/linear-gradient

Feel free to drop a mesg incase you need any help. I am no expert but will try to help you out

Good Luck,

Happy Coding

Hey good job completing this challenge

Keep up the good work

Your solution looks great however I think that the logo is a bit too small. Secondly the description is supposed to wrap by the keyword "our" to look like the design.

I hope this helps

Cheers

Happy coding šŸ‘

Hi, Nguyen! šŸ‘‹

It's great to see you submitting another solution! šŸ‘ Good effort on this challenge! šŸ‘

Regarding your questions.

  • For me, I used the Netlify form. So, when the user submitted their email, there will be a "Thank you" page and inside it, there's a link to go back to my site. Then, once the user goes back the email input has been cleared. So, if I would do it by myself, I would probably clear the input by setting the value to an empty string and adding a pop-up that says "Thank you for submitting your email!".
  • If I don't have the design file, I would just probably use a solid background because I think it is hard to measure the color for the gradient background. However, I use this linear-gradient(135deg, white, #fff5f5) code. So, you can just copy-paste it if you want. Regarding the learning resource, I would recommend reading the MDN documentation and/or CSS Trick articles about gradients.

I recommend adjusting the breakpoint for the media query, it's too late to change the layout into desktop layout on 1440px.

I would highly recommend never using inline CSS in JavaScript. It's best to always use CSS classes to style different states. For example, you can have is-invalid class in your CSS to style any element that is invalid. So, in JavaScript you can add and remove the is-invalid class based on different conditions.

That's it! Happy coding! šŸ˜
