What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

The challenge 💪

Users should be able to:

  • Input mortgage information and see monthly repayment and total repayment amounts after submitting the form ✅
  • See form validation messages if any field is incomplete ✅
  • Complete the form only using their keyboard ✅
  • View the optimal layout for the interface depending on their device's screen size ✅
  • See hover and focus states for all interactive elements on the page ✅

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Still unsure if this is the proper way to do reset the form. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

useEffect(() => {
  if (onReset) {
    // resets the data to blank
    setMortgageData({
      amount: "",
      year: "",
      interest: "",
      type: "",
      mMonthly: "",
      mInterestOnly: "",
      mTotal: "",
    });
    // resets the errors to false, so it will not show
    setErrors({
      amount: false,
      year: false,
      interest: false,
      type: false,
    });
    // returns reset button to default state
    setReset(false);
  }
}, [onReset]);

Thank you for taking the time in checking this project. 💕

I hope this somehow help you in what you're looking for. Cheers! 🍻

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.
