Assessment wanted for “Structuring planet data”
Looking for feedback on the HTML assessment Structuring planet data.
I am seeing if I can fulfill the requirements of the assessment better, and it anyone has techniques to make the code a bit more readable.
Thanks in advance,
dissidenttux
My code (on CodePen):
