Fun and Interesting Problems!

One of the most simple looking- yet hard to build things was my review form. I wanted the stars to look and behave in a very way and I didn't want to end up writing out some big ugly block of text to do so. Eventally I cam up with the followng code which allowed stars to not only have a rating value but a hover value targeted on mouse events.

ratingStars(){
    let starArr = [];

    for (let i = 1; i < 6; i++) {
      let id, maxRating;
      maxRating = this.state.hover ? this.state.hoverV: this.state.rating;
      if (i <= maxRating) id ="full";

      starArr.push(
        <i
          key={i}
          className="fa fa-star"
          id={id}
          onMouseEnter={this.handleHover(i)}
          onMouseLeave={this.handleHoverLeave}
          aria-hidden="true"
          onClick={this.updateRating(i)}>
        </i>);
    }

    return starArr;
  }

Future Plans

I had SO much fun making this site and it's so easy to think of more and more features to add. Specifically my next steps will be:

  • Creating a fake "checkout system" and keeping track of a user's order history
  • Adding false shipping information based on a user's location
  • Have a 'Sales' section where a user can alter their item with a tag for it to be 'on sale'
