Solution retrospective


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

Working with forms in conjunction with JavaScript for the first time.

Slowly but surely improving my front end skills

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

Had a doubt with the structure of the element and took a lot of time deciding the structure.

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

I would like someone to go through the code and let me know whether the solution is correct or not as I am not sure about it.

Any Ideas or suggestion would be welcomed!

    Congrats on your submission!

    The inputs work great and your layout looks similar to the given design, here are a few suggestions

    1. Form elements don't inherit font family from parent elements, so you have to specify that you want the font family inherited for those elements ex: input { font-family: inherit; }
    2. There is also text that is black, I'd just add styling to that text so it's the correct color
    3. The calculator results aren't showing up in the UI. I would use innerText instead of textContent because the innerText property returns content as rendered on screen, while textContent returns content as it is in the HTML markup, ignoring formatting.

    Good job again!

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, SASS, 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.
