Earlier quoted context omitted.

fixed :) thanks for the feedback!

No problem! You also have a label repeated, which makes the first item to select the second radio-button: super important pretty important

great catch -- fixed now, thank you!

Seems pretty cool. I originally thought from the name that this would post the questions and then let users vote on them, but this is well-made. As a note, your label for the highest level of importance should be for="factor-weight-4", currently two labels point at for="factor-weight-3". This means the wrong radio button is selected if you click that label. But props to you for actually using labels and inputs proper…

thanks for the feedback! should be fixed now :)

Here’s my output for trying to figure out what I am going to do for dinner: 1. pizza: 54 2. beer: 54 3. italian: 45 4. home cooked food: 44 5. thai: 42 6. mexican: 34 It’s fair to say the quality of the decisions this tool will enable is bounded by the ability of the user to make good decisions :-)

Why is food made by strangers even an option in this pandemic? It's a serious question. Unless the "staying alive" criterion has no value to you.

So far there is no evidence of transmission via food delivery.

Tip: if you input something and press "enter", it will reset the form. You should attach the event listener to the form's onSubmit, and not to the button's onClick.

Is there some book of best web dev practices where stuff like this is written down?

Not that I know of. Just something you learn from experience or your users will tell you quickly during validation.

best way to learn is to build.

I built a popular tool in the same niche [1]. I think your over complicating it. I got decision fatigue just trying to test it. [1] https://easydecisionmaker.com/

It's just random right?

Funny I did basically the same app as everyone for the ever common problem of deciding where to go to lunch at work.

It was a long time ago to try AngularJS (the new hotness of 2012), Less, and eventually Redis.
