  Hi, Great solution. The code looks clean and well organised. I can learn from your disciplined implementation of BEM. I tried to understand how you did the strength calculation, but didn't. But it works very well, congratualtions.

  @clickglue Thanks for the feedback , looking back at my javascript file I must agree it's not very clear what some functions do. The way I calculate password strength is password length to the power of number of characters/symbols, I took password length of 8 as my point of reference and calculated the combination for each option.

  const strengthObj = {
     100000000 : ["Too Weak!" , ["bar__block-red" , 1]],
     1785793904895 : ["Weak"  ,    ["bar__block-orange", 2]],
     128063081718015 : ["Medium" ,   ["bar__block-yellow", 3]],
     2252292232139040 : ["Strong"  ,  [ "bar__block-green", 4]],
  }
  

  they keys here represent the number of combinations to beat to be at least that level of strength. Obviously the right formula should be the other way around: number of characters/symbols to the power of password length, but that was giving me ridiculously big numbers.
