My process

Built with

• HTML5
• CSS3
• Flexbox
• JavaScript

What I learned

As my first JS personal project from scratch, this was a great learning experience to solidify my foundations on the holy trinity of web development. The project was built in iterations: first, as a game playable only via prompts and console logs, then the UI design materializing from a paper sketch, and finally integration of the UI with JavaScript (and a ton of refactors) to make the final game.

Key things I learned:

• HTML DOM Methods, Events, and Properties
• CSS Reset
• Flexbox
• CSS Combinators
• CSS Pseudo-classes
• How to create a pop-up modal box

Continued development

• Implement semantic HTML
• Improve use of units for more responsive design (e.g. rem for font-size)
• Improve mobile layout

Useful resources

• How to Create Popup Modal Box in HTML CSS & JavaScript This video served as my guide in creating the pop-up modal. What I changed is when the modal will be triggered - instead of a button to be clicked, the modal will be shown when the game ends.
