Self-Taught Developer Journal (52 Part Series)
Today I started writing the JavaScript for my Rock Paper Scissors UI.
I began with creating a named function to pass to the button addEventListener. The function will take the event as an argument.
For this function, I decided to re-use my game function I created in the earlier assignment.
As I testing the button events, I was having a hard time getting the correct button value to console log. I ended up down the rabbit hole of trying to Google to see what I was doing wrong.
I found out it was I should have been using the event target property. Specifically, I needed to do event.target.value, but I was trying to do event.value. It made realize I am definitely not familiar with the Event object. Even though I was looking at the Event object in console too.
I'm hoping to read up more on it, but glad I was able to get the correct output.
