Today #Day60 of #100DaysOfCode, I am Building a random background color generator.

I pre-designed what I am going to build as shown below,

So, yesterday Day59 I generated random values and random letters from the two arrays, Now Today Day60 Let's try to complete HTML, CSS, remaining JavaScipt code.

HTML

Let's define a button,

<button>click</button>

JavaScript

Let's try to define a position variable object arrow function that will be called for every single digit of the X code so that you will get a random letter or number,

let positions = ()=>{
    const keyGen = Math.floor(Math.random() * arrayshold.size + 1)
    const randomarray = arrayshold.get(keyGen)

    let arrlen
    if (keyGen === 1) arrlen = values.length
    else arrlen = letters.length

    const arrindGen = Math.floor(Math.random() * arrlen)

    pos = randomarray[arrindGen]
    return pos
}
console.log(`${positions()}`)

It worked, test case Image is shown below

After that, let's grab the button using queryselector

const button = document.querySelector('button')

Then, let's define an add event listener which will listen for the click and change the background of the document,

button.addEventListener('click',()=>{
})

Now, Let's define a hexcode const variable to store these randomly generated numbers and letters and call the positions() functions,

Lets print it to console to test,

button.addEventListener('click',()=>{
    const hexcode = `#${positions()}`
    console.log(hexcode)
})

yes, it prints random values and letters as shown below,

Now, Let's call the positions() function 6 times and store the hexcode,

const hexcode =
`#${positions()}${positions()}${positions()}${positions()}${positions()}${positions()}`

Yes, It's working as shown below,[ I manually input the hex code to the value for the background color property inside the body selector]

Now, Let's assign the hex code variable to the body object inside the addeventlistener function,

document.body.style.backgroundColor = hexcode

At last, The code I wrote is working as shown below,

HTML

Let's define a div with a class with a paragraph tag and span tag,

<div class="BGcontent">
    <p> BackgroundColor :
        <span class="hexcode">
            #ffffff
        </span>
    </p>
</div>

JavaScript

Let's Export the hex code value to the span with the class name hex code,

const hexexport = document.querySelector('.hexcode')

Now, assign the variable hexcode value inside the event listener, So display the background color in hex code.

hexexport.innerHTML = hexcode

Finally,

You can assign this hexcode to style the color of the text as shown below,

hexexport.style.color = hexcode

CSS

Let's add Styling and center the button,

Define the property display, justify-content center,

div.button {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

Finally,

Let's add styling to the button

change the font size and font type keyway border radius,

change the width and height of the button,

button {
  font: 1.5em sans-serif;
  border-radius: 12px;
  outline: none;
  box-shadow: 0 1px 10px #2c2a2a;
  background-color: #cf4e4e;
  transition: 0.6s ease;
  width: 17.5em;
  height: 2.7em;
}

Conclusion

Finally, I completed Coding the Background Color generator in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

  1. addEventListener()

  2. JS template literals

  3. JS style.backgroundColor property

  4. CSS display flex

  5. CSS display grid

  6. CSS picking child elements

Code

  1. Background Color generator Code

  2. Background Color generator
