To do

To improve (tips from the Guardian developers)

  • Error check so website doesn't break e.g. tell the code what to do if something doesn't exist. Don't have lots of dots in objects. e.g. if x.y.z.a should be if x.y=? then if x.y.z=? then.....

  • INDENT CODE -

  • DECLARE VARIABLES AT THE TOP - vars should only ever follow a function statement

  • window.localstorage

  • run as one function e.g. "(function(x){ ALL CODE HERE})"

  • don't make lots of DOM changes using javascript (e.g. document.)- better to put it all in a string (templates). try moustache.js

newsic's Issues

More comments in the js file

even more detailed comments could make this file easier to understand I am having a tough time following the functionality

No comments on index.html

Could do with more comments on all of the files detailing what's happening .

Also clean-up uncommented code.

UX Home page

Mouse could change to pointer or some sort of indication as to prompt user on initial load. (down arrow button).

User Experience Splash Page

  • Could have a button on your splash page which says enter site as not obvious that you have to click to do so.

Tes could be more exstensive

Could have instructions on how to run tests. Test only cover Soundcloud API requests nothing for guardian or any other functionality. Code coverage test- rogue programmer.
