Interactive rating component solution

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I’m most proud of successfully implementing the popovertarget attribute and creating a fully accessible design using ARIA attributes. I also achieved a smooth user experience with form reset functionality after modal interaction. Next time, I’d focus on adding real-time form validation and improving keyboard accessibility for even better usability.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

The biggest challenge was integrating the popovertarget within the form. The form's default behavior was interfering with the modal popover. I solved this by using e.preventDefault() to manually handle form submission and modal display. I also encountered difficulties with error messaging, which I fixed by switching from the hidden attribute to using classList in JavaScript along with aria-live to make error messages accessible.
