Solution retrospective


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

Hosting my first react app project using github pages

  • Installing gh pages .
  • Setting up the homepage.
  • Then adding and deploying the react app.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Focusing on parent elements when their child elements is focused

label:focus-within {
  border-color: yellow;
} 
/*changes the font color of the element if an element within it is focused on */

Formatting the amount input and adding comas for every 3 digits excluding the first number

handleInput(e){
    const rawValue = e.target.value.replace(/,/g, ""); // Remove existing commas
    const numberValue = parseFloat(rawValue);
    console.log(isNaN(numberValue));
    const formattedValue = new Intl.NumberFormat("en-US").format(numberValue);
    setCalculationValue({
      ...calculationValue:
      [e.target.name] : formattedValue;
    })
}
// this process here, receives an input , removes any existing commas, converts it to number, puts a comma on the number for every 3 digits excluding the 1st one.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

I think the only possible assistance that can be asked is if we can get more projects with their figma files for free.

  • Allows for easier styling.

Aside figma file, I think every other task that comes with the challenge is worth experience

  • The more complicating a task is, the more you learn and the more experience you gain..

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 all CSS, SCSS and Less files in your repository.

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.

How does the JavaScript validation report work?

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

The report picks out common JavaScript issues such as not using semicolons and using var instead of let or const, among others.

The report will audit all JS and JSX files in your repository. We currently do not support Typescript or other frontend frameworks.
