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
• Submit their email address using an input field
• Receive an error message when the form is submitted if:
  • The input field is empty. The message for this error should say "Whoops! It looks like you forgot to add your email"
  • The email address is not formatted correctly (i.e. a correct email address should have this structure: [e-mail]). The message for this error should say "Please provide a valid email address"

What I learned

I learned a very simple way to handle the same input input error over different device sizes.

Continued development

I'd like to keep focusing on form handling as well as better implementation of images for faster loading times.

Useful resources

• Email validation RegEx - This helped me have a fast implementation of an email validation regular expression.
