implement progress bar

With the progress bar, there is a very clear next step. I need to read the documentation about how to implement it with Vaadin.

Here's the link to the documents: progress bar

From looking at the documents really fast, it looks like the hardest part will be to get it to look the way I want it to. Which is a lot thicker. Controlling it will be a piece of cake. So that needs to be things I specifically look for.

From what I've looked up, this seems like a really good opportunity to learn about JavaScript. Instead of using Vaadin's boring looking progress bar, I'll make my own.

This will require some hardcore research and some actual dedication. I want to learn the basics of JavaScript, then the specifics about how to make the progress bar. I keep wanting to make the assets but I can't be focusing on that right now. I need to actually learn the code, then worry about the look of it later.

TODO

• analyze the code copilot just showed me when I asked it how to do it. I copied down all the code it showed me, and from what I know of java, it makes fundamental sense of what it's trying to do. I just got ahead of myself and jumped right into trying to test it when I don't yet understand how javascript works.

• peek at the vaadin .js file for their progress bar

• refresh on javascript basics ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is very important. In order to understand what I'm doing and not beat my head against the wall I need a basic understanding of how this stuff works. I still paid for Codecademy, just use it.
