Assignment Submission: Exquisite React

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment. Please reflect on the assignment with these questions.

Reflection

Prompt	Response
Define in your own words: What does "state" in React mean? How do we use it?	State is the data a component maintains. Props (how we pass data from component to component) cannot be changed by the component receiving the props. Props are immutable. So state is a way for a component to both change and maintain data.
Describe the relationships between the components on a high-level: which components were siblings? Which components were nested within each other?	The components PlayerSubmissionForm, RecentSubmission, and FinalPoem are siblings. They are all nested together (children) in the Game component. The Game component is then nested in the App.
How did this project differ from in-class examples?	The in-class examples didn't cover all of the different ways to do conditional rendering. Also, this project had 3 child components nested in one component.
How was this project similar to in-class examples?	Specific to this week, the advanced forms in-class examples showed how to use a single function to update any field based on a parameter and how to mark an input field (displayed to the user) as pink/green based on valid input.

A couple of tests failed, but the project seems to be working overall. I'd like to get some help/feedback on how to dry up the code, make better use of "fields," and what to do about the tests.

Overall not bad Aimee, you had things mostly working. See my comments on the FinalPoem.js file. Some of the other tests are failing because the tests are unable to select the correct input fields and enter text. They make assumptions about your code that is different.

Other than that you have a fully functional Exquisite Corpse game. Nice work. You did demonstrate the skills we were assessing.
