Here is where I am currently up to with this project. Can anyone provide some guidance on how to get the basket items to update and be accessible from the nav basket icon and how best to make quantity buttons work as expected. even if a link to a YouTube video etc. I previously tried making a basketContext.js and using the hook but couldn't seem to get that to work either. any directional input to help me figure this out will be deeply appreciated. This is not a finished product as yet but wanted to put out to the community what I am struggling with.

    What went wrong when you tried using a context? This is a good way to maintain the data between components, pages, etc. Perhaps this is redundant, but here are a few guides on using contexts. https://react.dev/learn/scaling-up-with-reducer-and-context https://nextjs.org/docs/getting-started/react-essentials#context https://www.netlify.com/blog/2020/12/01/using-react-context-for-state-management-in-next.js/ https://stackoverflow.com/a/74264296

    Note that you can only use contexts in client components; those which are rendered client-side.

    Alternatively, you can have functions on the buttons that add the item to an array and store that array locally. That array can then be called on by the cart. There are loads of examples of this on the web; here's one from Stack Overflow. Not a great solution for real-world apps but its usable during practice.

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.
