Fork and clone this project.
Goal: Create a working, single page app.
This project has 3 parts.
- The Shopping List BDD tests
- Building the Shopping List classes to make tests pass
- Rendering a shopping list to the browser
use http-server or live-server to test and run your app
Setup Mocha and Chai to run tests on your application in the browser.

The tests should describe the following shopping list functionality:
- ShoppingListItem is a class
- ShoppingListItem has a property named
name - ShoppingListItem has a property named
description - ShoppingListItem has a property named
isDone - ShoppingListItem has a constructor method that accepts 2 arguments,
nameanddescription- the constructor method sets the new instances
nameanddescriptionproperties using the arguments passed in
- the constructor method sets the new instances
- ShoppingListItem has a method named
check- calling the instance's
checkmethod will set it'sisDoneproperty to true
- calling the instance's
- ShoppingListItem has a method named
uncheck- calling the instance's
uncheckmethod will set it'sisDoneproperty to false
- calling the instance's
- ShoppingListItem has a method named
render- calling the instance's
rendermethod will construct and return an html formatted string. the string content will be wrapped in<li>tags.<li class="completed_[is_done]"><span>[name]</span> <span>[description]</span></li>. example:<li class="completed_false"><span>Avocado</span> <span>Must be eaten immediately.</span></li>
- calling the instance's
hint: Use ES6 string templates for your render method
example:
let someHtmlOutput = `<ul>
<li class="completed_false">
<span>Avocado</span>
<span>Must be eaten immediately.</span>
</li>
<ul>`;- ShoppingList is a class
- ShoppingList has a property named
items - ShoppingList has a constructor method that initializes
itemsas an empty Array - ShoppingList has a method named
addItemthat accepts a single ShoppingListItem argument- invoking the
addItemmethod by passing in a ShoppingListItem object should add that object to theitemsarray - invoking the
addItemmethod by passing in anything else that is not a ShoppingListItem object should immediately throw an error
- invoking the
- ShoppingList has a method named
removeItemthat accepts a single ShoppingListItem argument- invoking the
removeItemmethod by passing in a ShoppingListItem object (that exists in theitemsarray) should remove that object from theitemsarray - invoking the
removeItemmethod with no parameters should remove the last item in theitemslist, if there are any items, else it does nothing - invoking the
removeItemmethod by passing in anything else that is not a ShoppingListItem object (that exists in theitemsarray) should immediately throw an error

- ShoppingList has a method named
render- calling the instance's
rendermethod will concatenate the result of callingrender()on each item in this object'sitemsarray, wrapping it in a<ul>tags, and returning an html formatted string. ex:<ul>...[all the li elements from ShoppingListItem.render()]...</ul>

before the end of this body tag, include your 3 shopping list scripts.
Create a form that has 2 text fields, title and description.
Add a button element with the contents of "Add to Shopping List", and give it an id of addShoppingListItemButton.
Add the id addItemForm to the input form.
Create an instance of ShoppingList.
Use addEventListener to add a click event handler to the addShoppingListItemButton that will run a function called addToShoppingList(event). http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onclick.asp or alternatively use addEventListener to add a submit event handler to the form.
Invoke the shoppingList object's render() method, and store the output to a variable. Write the resulting output html into the content div. http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_html_innerhtml.asp
// add item instructions
Create an addToShoppingList function that will read the value of the title and description fields, then create a new variable named newShoppingListItem that will store the result of constructing a new ShoppingListItem and passing in the values of title and description.
Invoke your shopping list's addItem by passing in your newShoppingListItem.
Re-render the shopping list.

Modify the ShoppingListItem render() method to include a checkbox input. Add an onchange event listener to this checkbox that will call a function named changeCheckedStatus(idx, checkbox) where 'idx' is the position (array index) of the ShoppingListItem, and 'checkbox' is the actual checkbox element. http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_checkbox_checked.asp
create a changeCheckedStatus function that accepts two arguments, idx and checkbox.
it will find a ShoppingListItem based on the idx passed in to the function.
determine if the checkbox that has been clicked, is now checked or not checked. http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onchange.asp
if the checkbox is checked,
invoke the shoppingListItem object's check() method.
if the checkbox is not checked,
invoke the shoppingListItem object's uncheck() method.
Commit and push your work.
Modify the ShoppingListItem render() method to include a button element with the label x. Add a click event listener to this button that will call a function named removeItemButtonClicked(idx) where 'idx' is the position (array index) of the ShoppingListItem.
Create a removeItemButtonClicked function that accepts a single argument, idx.
It will find a ShoppingListItem based on the idx passed in to the function.
It will call the shopping_list instance's removeItem method, while passing in the found ShoppingListItem object as an argument. Then, re-render the shopping list.
Commit and push your work.
When you finish all of the items above, you can work on these additonal stretch goals.
- Ask a TA or instructor for a code review.
- When you check an item off on your shopping list, strike it out on the DOM.
- Make it look like a shopping list app that you would want to use. Great creative with the UI and UX.
