FAQ Accordion with JavaScript

Solution retrospective
What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I would have to say I am most proud of figuring out the JavaScript. Understanding how to use forEach loops, swap images and use addEventListeners.
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
const questions = document.querySelectorAll('.question');
questions.forEach((question, index) => {
const answer = document.getElementById(`answer${index + 1}`);
const icon = question.querySelector('.toggle-icon');
//hide all answers on load
const toggleAnswer = () => {
if (answer.style.display === 'none') {
answer.style.display = 'block';
icon.src = 'https://github.com/myname/FAQ-Accordion/blob/main/assets/images/icon-minus.svg'; // Change to minus icon
} else {
answer.style.display = 'none';
icon.src = 'https://github.com/myname/FAQ-Accordion/blob/main/assets/images/icon-plus.svg'; // Change to plus icon
}
};
//swaps the icon and shows the answer when clicked
question.addEventListener('click', toggleAnswer);
//enter is pressed on the question the answer will toggle
question.addEventListener('keydown', (event) => {
if (event.key === 'Enter') {
toggleAnswer();
}
});
});
});
### What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
One challenge I had was the path for swapping images in JavaScript will not display the images correctly in GitHub Pages. I had to retrieve the absolute path GitHub and use that in the JavaScript to get the images to render correctly.
### What specific areas of your project would you like help with?
I think I figured out everything I needed to on my own with internet resources.
