Building JavaScript Filters for a Frontend Project | Project Part 13

In this stream I worked on the search and filter functionality for Practice Layouts, a vanilla HTML, CSS and JavaScript project. The goal was to let someone type into the shared search field and filter the project cards by title, category and description without moving to a separate search results page. I used my 30 Days of Vanilla JavaScript project as a reference, then adapted the logic to this project’s structure. We wrapped the render logic in a function, added a debounced input event, filtered the full data set, cleared and re-rendered the project grid, handled empty results, hid the hero while searching, kept the floating label active when the input has a value and made the search work across the home page and inner pages. Topics covered: Frontend deployment process and team communication How I think about AI and the future of frontend work Why new developers still need HTML, CSS and JavaScript practice Using AI to create practice challenges Planning a search/filter feature Debouncing an input event Filtering data by multiple fields Re-rendering project cards from matched data Handling empty search results Using the `hidden` attribute with existing CSS display rules Avoiding `!important` by understanding specificity Keeping a floating label active with JavaScript Making shared search behavior work on inner pages This video is for frontend developers and learners who want to see real vanilla JavaScript problem solving, including the messy middle where the conditions are not obvious at first.
