Solution retrospective


What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I like how it turned out, it's responsive and all the functionality works decently. I spent a little too long doing it but speed will come with practice. There's still plenty of things that need working on, minor bugs that need fixing, so I will keep working on this app.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
  • When I go to a country detail page and click back button the page flickers before it reloads. I would like to learn why this is happening and how to fix this.
  • I would like to learn how to target specific elements in CSS that are built with reactstrap. For example I used button.btn selector to override reactstrap's button style, but I am not sure whether this is the right way. I just did a lot of trial and error in this case.
