Solution retrospective


First time writing JS, please do give criticism if I could improve anywhere. I taught about implementing a for in the getValue() function but I don't know how / don't know if it's better optimized than with the single if else condition I used.

    Hey, AlexMagargiu! 👋

    Well done on this challenge! 👍 I think you did a good job on the styling and your solution looks good! 👏

    I would suggest leaving the alt text for the icon and maybe even illustration in this challenge empty, since they aren't relevant to the content of the page and we don't really want them to be noticed and read by screen readers.

    And a small tip for your JS—rather than call getValue inside of switchDisplay, you can call switchDisplay inside of getValue if the user has selected an option. This will make your code slightly easier to follow and you won't have to bother with returning a boolean from getValue. 😉

    Keep practicing and with time you'll find better and better solutions to problems you encounter. 👍

    Hope you find this helpful. 😊

    Keep coding (and happy coding, too)! 😁

How does the accessibility report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use axe-core to run an automated audit of your code.

This picks out common accessibility issues like not using semantic HTML and not having proper heading hierarchies, among others.

This automated audit is fairly surface level, so we encourage to you review the project and code in more detail with accessibility best practices in mind.

How does the CSS report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use stylelint to run an automated check on the CSS code.

We've added some of our own linting rules based on recommended best practices. These rules are prefixed with frontend-mentor/ which you'll see at the top of each issue in the report.

The report will audit 1st-party linked stylesheets, and styles within <style> tags.

How does the HTML validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use html-validate to run an automated check on the HTML code.

The report picks out common HTML issues such as not using headings within section elements and incorrect nesting of elements, among others.

Note that the report can pick up “invalid” attributes, which some frameworks automatically add to the HTML. These attributes are crucial for how the frameworks function, although they’re technically not valid HTML. As such, some projects can show up with many HTML validation errors, which are benign and are a necessary part of the framework.
