Hey guys!

One question I had was that I noticed that if the total outputs are more than $100, it changes the size of the calculator. I was just wondering how you would fix this, whether you would use max-width or another method?

Other than that, I worked really hard on the JS for this project, and I'm pretty proud of getting it to work, but I'm open to any suggestions for how to improve!

Also, I wasn't sure how to initiate the calculations since there wasn't a submit button, but I ended up making everything happen after you press "Enter." I'm curious about how others approached this, though.

    • Size you can set overflow-x : scroll with the fixed width.

    • Intead of pressed 'Enter'. You can addEventListener('input') (when you input number ) or addEventListener('focus') (' after input from when you focus to other thing ).

    For the data collation, i am not sure how i wired mine, didnt really cross check before submitting, but you can wire it all to be a form, that way you can do a validation on submit which just checks the input fields and type

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.
