This is a solution to the Intro component with sign up form challenge on Frontend Mentor. Frontend Mentor challenges help you improve your coding skills by building realistic projects.

Overview

The challenge

Users should be able to:

• View the optimal layout for the site depending on their device's screen size
• See hover states for all interactive elements on the page
• Receive an error message when the form is submitted if:
  • Any input field is empty. The message for this error should say "[Field Name] cannot be empty"
  • The email address is not formatted correctly (i.e. a correct email address should have this structure: [email protected]). The message for this error should say "Looks like this is not an email"

My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• CSS Grid
• Mobile-first workflow

What I learned

Form validation and changing various parameters of the form based on valid/not valid/ Added extra functionality to change back text and border color on focus to retype along with hiding the error message.

Todo: There were only 4 elements so wrote out the javacode and event listeners but better way would be to use nextElementSibling syntax.

Continued development

Reducing repetitive JS code.
