As a web developer, you will be creatings lots and lots of dynamic HTML using Javascript based algorithms.
In this exercise you have to create the HTML code needed to render a profile card based on a series of variables that could change in value during runtime. Here is an example of the profile card:
Inside the src/app.js file there is a render
function that receives variables and contains the logic to create most of the website HTML code.
function render(variables = {}) {
document.querySelector("#widget_content").innerHTML = `<div>Website code</div>`;
}
You can see the variables
that are being generated by typing on the developer console:
console.log(window.variables);
/*
{
includeCover: true, // if includeCover is true the algorithm should
background: "https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1511974035430-5de47d3b95da", // this is the url of the image that will used as background for the profile cover
avatarURL: "https://randomuser.me/api/portraits/women/42.jpg", // this is the url for the profile avatar
socialMediaPosition: "left", // social media bar position (left or right)
twitter: null, // social media usernames
github: "alesanchezr",
linkedin: null,
instagram: null,
name: null,
lastname: null,
role: null,
country: null,
city: null
}
*/
These instructions come with a video for better understanding: https://youtu.be/gaVm8eyCqlM
- Read and understand the render function and the value of the
variables
variable that it receives. - Change the content of the render function to make it render the variables on the card.
Name | Type | Default Value | Description |
---|---|---|---|
includeCover | boolean | true | it determines if the cover shoud be visible with an image or not |
background | string | null | the url of the image that will used as background for the profile cover |
avatarURL | string | null | the url for the profile avatar |
socialMediaPosition | string | "right" | it can be left or right and it determines where to place the social media bar |
string | null | the twitter username to be displayed on the profile | |
github | string | null | the github username to be displayed on the profile |
string | null | the linkedin username to be displayed on the profile | |
string | null | the instagram username to be displayed on the profile | |
name | string | null | The name of the user to be displayed on the profile |
lastname | string | null | The name of the user to be displayed on the profile |
role | string | null | The name of the user to be displayed on the profile |
country | string | null | The name of the user to be displayed on the profile |
city | string | null | the city of the user to be displayed on the profile |
This is an example of a possible HTML output, you will have to replace the name, lastname, etc. With the values that these variables may have.
