Solution retrospective

This challenge was a nice project to practice state management of the whole app with Context API, storing all the data at the top level and retrieving it from grandchildren without prop drilling. Initial data is rendered dynamically from data.js

Step transitions are smooth with subtle fade-in animations. Clicking on plans or add-ons also produce some little ripple effect 🔥

Note: This was built some while ago, so with my current knowledge, i'm aware that the code needs some changes regarding best practices and some more improvements in terms of semantic HTML etc. Also the form validation is basic. (not checking for @ etc., type number for phone etc.)

    Hi visualdenniss, I liked the ripple animation in buttons and the fade transitions between sections.

    You could use the onBlur property on inputs to show an error message if the user didn't provide any value to that input; and also maybe use a regex to validate the email address.

    Otherwise, it's a great solution!

    @hector-kuentro Hello Hector,

    thanks a lot for your feedback! I've used regex and email validation on my latest submission but not on this one. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Thats a good idea, i've never used onBlur before, so i might try. At the moment, i'm learning react-hook-form, so maybe it includes that feature as well, otherwise i'll use onBlur.

    Nice! With Context API seems legit! I also done this challenge and I was prop drilling the heck out of it. It was a mess 😅
