Solution retrospective

In this challenge, I removed input style with appearance: none, using just label for rating instead since you can click respective label to select that radio button.

My question is: How to eliminate the difference(a blue dot for checked radio button) of appearance: none between Chrome and Firefox? Here's the screenshots about this issue Chrome Firefox

What's your solution to this challenge? Do you style the input without completely removing the default styles? Any advice/comments are welcomed🙏

(updated: the blue dot issue would be solved by setting input outline: none, thanks to @SutonToch)

    Congrats on completing the challenge!

    To remove the blue dot in Firefox, try outline: none; on the inputs. appearance: none; doesn't seem to cover outline, but I didn't know that too until now.

    There are many different ways to accomplish the rating, and choosing the radio input is definitely a good one, because you need less JS. I chose simple div's at the time, but radio inputs are better.

    I don't know how you would get the numbers into the radio input, except with awkward positioning which I'd always avoid if possible, without removing the default styles on the input. Therefore, I think using the label is the best option. But I'm also interested in other opinions :)

    Be proud of yourself for submitting the challenge to the public! You did a great job! Keep on going :)

    @SutonToch Thank you! I didn't realize it's about the outline 😂

    I don't like hard-coding positioning either! There should be some better ways to do this so I'm also interested to know about people's solutions to this.

    Thanks for your sharing and encouragement, it really helps me to move forward. I hope you have a bright future too! Keep on growing together💪
