Solution retrospective


One of my favorite projects that and a project that I wanted to create since day one of learning web development. It feels ten times cooler because now I'm built it with modern tools such as: React, TailwindCSS, etc. TailwindCSS came in handy to make all the themes and change the colors easily. I feel like every other option out there, such as using CSS :root variables would've made the matter a lot harder than it is. What comes to the main functionality of the app, I was planning on making it with just useState, but once I managed to do that pretty easily, I wanted to make this a bit more challenging. So, I went to research useReducer, after a bunch of videos, articles and reading the docs, I managed to build it with just useReducer. Will definitely use useReducer in the upcoming projects. As an addition I added a small section in the main display, that will show the previous number, current number and the operation, so the user doesn't have to guess what's happening behind the scenes. I hope you'll enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed coding it!
