What’s one technical challenge you overcame?
Writing modular code and using multiple files that connected and displayed well with grid-templates to create a visual layout that was easy to work with, add new data to, and create media queries with minimal effort.
What’s one non-technical challenge you overcame
A sick partner. Halfway through the first week of two, Collin got very sick and had to be home for about 5 days, and still never full recovered by the end of the project. While this perhaps halted the progress of our project slightly, it was also great pratice in remote working and communication!
What’s one thing you learned from this project?
TDD really forces me to write more modular code. When we had any issues, fixing a function that only had one responsibility was much easier and nothing else in the project broke.
Biggest win / struggle
Biggest win was getting all the proper data and having it display on the DOM. Biggest struggle was taking the time to learn throughly with a short project timeline.
Something you would do differently the next time around
Next time around I would spend a little more time on UX/UI and make sure to include little details that will make the data more clear, like units of measurment.
