Purpose

This was my final project assignment for my JavaScript course at Edmonds Community College. The assignment was to take an existing table based UI and modify it to meet my own needs as a shopping cart site.

Design

Embedded and external JavaScript was utilized for dynamic updating of the HTML pages. Cookies are used for storing and retrieving data between the pages. Written with MS Visual Code.

Notes

Even though tables are no longer utilized for new website design, the professor knows that many of our future projects will involve diving into existing websites. This taught me a lot about the frustration and sense of accomplishment when working with an older website. there were console errors to deal with, code errors, reading/writing of cookies, and a timer for the last page. I learned that I won’t always get to work with the latest techniques when maintaining an existing website.
