Fruit Picker: hints are outdated

Open SleeplessByte opened this issue 3 years ago • 8 comments

Related but not covered by #1818,

The hints have not been updated in #1725. For example, the first task:

- Use the imported API function checkStatus in your function.
- Pass a callback function to checkStatus. It should expect to receive a string argument.
- Return the result from the checkStatus API function.

But the correct implementation is:

export function onSuccess() {
  notify({ message: 'SUCCESS' })
}

The hints.md file can be found here: https://github.com/exercism/javascript/blob/main/exercises/concept/fruit-picker/.docs/hints.md

General information of how to write the hints.md file can be found here: https://exercism.org/docs/building/tracks/concept-exercises#h-file-docs-hints-md

Hello. How can I assist in updating the hints? This is my first attempt at contributing to Exercism.

@junedev, please see the paragraph text under "This task requires you to fix something broken"... it says "...you'll be bulding taking something that's currently not working...". The word bulding can be changed to building. It's spelled this way in the other pop-up instructions too.

@dunndeft Good catch regarding the typo. Could you please create an issue for this here: https://github.com/exercism/exercism. The people that monitor those issues are able to fix the typo. The main website repository does not accept contributions.

@dunndeft Do you still intend to work on the hints or can @DANTELX take over this task?
