Today you'll be creating a simple to do list application that will focus on DOM manipulation. Take a look at index.html and identify the DOM elements you'll need to manipulate before you write any code.
Check out the working demo
Instead of relying on unit tests, this lab is deliverable driven. You will be responsible for asserting your solution works as intended by testing the behavior visually in the browser.
- Fork and clone this repository
- Open
index.htmlin Chrome (Tip: you can useopen index.htmlin bash and, as long as Chrome is your default application for opening.htmlfiles, it will automatically open the file) - Put your JavaScript knowledge to the test and work your way through the deliverables
You've been provided with a basic HTML file, as well as a src/index.js file where you can implement your solution. Focus on getting the feature working while using your knowledge to write readable, maintainable code.
- users should be able to type a task into the input field
- users should be able to click some form of a submit button
- the task string that the user provided should appear on the DOM after the submit button has been activated
Note: While the example shows one working application of TaskLister Lite™️, yours can (and is encouraged to!) look however you like.
If you finish early, try to implement one or more of the following:
- A delete function that will remove tasks from your list
- A priority value selected from a dropdown that is used to determine the color of the text in the list (e.g. red for high priority, yellow for medium, green for low)
- As a challenge, implement a sorting functionality that displays the tasks ASC/DESC based on priority
- An additional input field (e.g. user, duration, date due)
- Ability to edit tasks
- Something of your choice! The main objective is to add a feature that allows the user's input to affect the DOM
