Frontend Mentor - Age calculator app solution

This is a solution to the Age calculator app challenge on Frontend Mentor. Frontend Mentor challenges help you improve your coding skills by building realistic projects.

Table of contents

Overview

The challenge

Users should be able to:

  • View an age in years, months, and days after submitting a valid date through the form
  • Receive validation errors if:
    • Any field is empty when the form is submitted
    • The day number is not between 1-31
    • The month number is not between 1-12
    • The year is in the future
    • The date is invalid e.g. 31/04/1991 (there are 30 days in April)
  • View the optimal layout for the interface depending on their device's screen size
  • See hover and focus states for all interactive elements on the page
  • Bonus: See the age numbers animate to their final number when the form is submitted

My process

Built with

  • Semantic HTML5 markup
  • CSS custom properties
  • Flexbox
  • Mobile-first workflow
  • Moment.js library CDN (with moment-precise-range plugin)

What I learned

Good come back to JS world, specially using a library for the first time: moment.js. Gotta keep trying to understand it better.

Continued development

  • Definititely need to inprove on my JS skills. I was lost for quite while on some basic stuff that could be avoided by practicing more.

  • Gotta keep looking at the moment.js library (and yes, I know it was kinda "descontinuated") and some other new ones later.

  • I initially try to use NPM to install the momentJS library put I find myself stuck in some MODULE stuff that really pissMeOff. So I ended up using it's CDN directly on HTML script tag.

I didn't apply any form validation to this project. Still a really hard topic to wrap my head around. Need a LITTLE more focus on that one .-.
