Steps to Completion

Creating the table connection

1. Open js/table.js in your editor
2. Find where socket.emit() accepts a string 'table-connect'
3. The method's second parameter accepts the unique table id
4. Replace 'id123' with the variable 'tableId' to pass in the correct table id to the server for connection

Displaying the QR Code

1. Open js/table.js in your editor
2. Find where VSCode is signalling an error in your JS syntax
3. The method for creating a qr code is incorrect. Change the method to 'qrCodeGenerator'

Creating the deck connection

1. Open js/deck.js in your editor
2. Find where "serverURL" (a string) is passed into the io.connect() method
3. Replace the string with the variable serverURL (without quotes) in order for socket.io-client to connect with the server

Correcting the card throw strength property

1. Open js/deck.js in your editor
2. Find where 0 is assigned the value for 'strength'
3. Replace 0 with 'strength' (not in quotes) to assign the value from the strength parameter to the strength property for each card
