My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• Desktop-first workflow
• Transitions
• Media queries
• Pseudo-classes
• JavaScript vanilla
• Google Fonts - Interactive directory of typefaces in local
• Normalize - It makes browsers render all elements more consistently and according to modern standards.

What I learned

• Use the match() function to search for the string the user enters and check with the regExp that I store in an object to verify if there is a match and return a message to the user.

const BTN = document.getElementById("btn__form")
const EMAIL = document.getElementById("email")

const REGEX = {
  email: /^\w+([\.-]?\w+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/,
};

BTN.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
  if (EMAIL.value.match(REGEX.email)) {
    console.log('Email correcto 🐰')
  } else {
    console.log('Email incorrecto 🐰')
  }
}

• I also learned the basic use of the .gitignore file.

Continued development

I continue learning how to manipulate the DOM, since this time I only used this method: ERROR_NAME.innerHTML = "Please provide a valid email" EMAIL.style.outline = "3px solid hsl(0, 93%, 68%)" IMG_ERROR.style.display = 'block', to manipulate the styles and the elements that were displayed.
