Responsive Time Tracking App HTML/CSS/JS

Solution retrospective
I'm particularly proud of solving the SVG icon positioning challenge. Getting the icons to display correctly within the colored box-shadow areas required creative problem-solving and a deep understanding of CSS positioning and clipping techniques.
If starting over, I would:
- Plan my JavaScript architecture more thoroughly before coding
- Use a component-based approach to avoid repetitive HTML (probably React)
- Implement more comprehensive error handling from the beginning
- Consider using a CSS preprocessor for more manageable styles (maybe SCSS or Tailwind)
The biggest challenges were:
-
SVG Positioning - Getting the icons to appear correctly within the box-shadow area required several approaches before finding a solution with clip-path.
-
Radio Button State Management - Initially, I struggled with updating the UI based on radio button selections. I resolved this by:
- Ensuring proper timing of event binding
- Correctly passing radio button values to functions
- Adding better error handling and debugging
-
Asynchronous Data Flow - Managing the timing of async operations when updating the UI based on user interaction.
- Performance Optimization - Reducing unnecessary re-renders and DOM manipulations
- Code Organization - Better separation of concerns between data, UI, and event handling
- Responsive Design - More thorough testing across different viewport sizes
