Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
What does it mean for code to be asynchronous?	it means that code may not run top down, line by line, but is often waiting for a trigger from a user, like a click on a button.
Describe a piece of your code that executes asynchronously. How did this affect the way you structured it?	Index Click Handler, is a piece of code that executes asynchronously, when a button is pressed it performs an action of putting together the url and making a call to the api, it then waits for a response and calls another function based on the response (success or failure) that will execute it's own set of code.
What kind of errors might the API give you? How did you choose to handle them?	Some errors you may encounter include Bad Url, Trip Id does not exist, etc. I chose to handle errors in my failure callback function by displaying a message on the screen.
What is an Underscore template? Describe one template you used for this project.	Underscore template is a script we use to dynamically generate HTML content via jquery. A template I used for this project was a trip index, that displayed a list of trips, that were clickable through to their associated trip details.
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?

What We're Looking For

Feature	Feedback
Core Requirements
Git hygiene	Probably could do more granular commits, but it's a small project.
Comprehension questions	Check
Functionality
Click a button to list trips	Check
Click a trip to see trip details	Check
Fill out a form to reserve a spot	Check, I like how the form disappears when you submit, that way you can't double-book!
Errors are reported to the user	It reports something went wrong.
Styling, Foundation grid layout	Some small issues with the fixed height in the footer being smaller than the contents so the white shows at the bottom especially with a mobile device. It is responsive, which is nice.
Under the Hood
Trip data is retrieved using jQuery AJAX	Check
JavaScript is well-organized and easy to read	Check, I like how the comments separated out.
HTML is semantic	Check, again good comments to separate content.
All dynamic content is rendered using Underscore templates	Check
Overall	Nicely done. The code is well organized, I can see where you had some frustrations with styling, but you're meeting all requirements.
