What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

I would greatly appreciate a blog, video, or other resource that thoroughly explains useState. Although I've learned about useState, I'm still having some difficulties understanding it fully."

    Hi @G-Gakii!

    Congrats on completing this project.

    I forked your repo and made a pull request for how you may want to retain a background color on your circles! If you would like to see an alternative approach via radio buttons take a look at this repo from @llr3v0ll

    Good work!

    To keep the background color changed after the user has clicked on their number has two approaches.

    First you could create a new class with all the same properties but change the background color and toggle these classes when a user clicks on a number. Or second you could directly change the background color of the clicked number in your javascript document document.getElementById("your-element).style.backgroundColor = "your color here".

    These are two easy approaches that should help you fix your issue! Keep up the good work.
