I just noticed something in the Lunch Card app: when adding another card after adding the first, it autofills all the text fields (newCard variable) with the previous info. For a normal customer, I think that would be pretty annoying to have to delete all the field data and replace it every time.

If you need reference, check out previous expansions of this. Here's the most recent code for CardsView and AddView for version 1.2:

CardsView

Note: Not really important, but instructions now exist.

AddView

Note: I added colors as a variable as well.

Here's Info.swift. It's not too much different but there are now colors:

Info.swift

After cardsInfo.add() in Button action of AddView

or

After cards.append(newCard) in add() of Info

Make the "newCard" variable empty

Assign empty to newCard

It is better for you to make it by yourself.

That is a UI choice.

In such a case, it is nice to have it refilled.
But you could add a button to clear all the fields.

Or propose 2 buttons:
New-prefilled and New

That will be an easy evolution for the demo app.

Did you try to do it ?

It'd probably be after cards.append(newCard) using the add() function in info.

Assign empty to newCard

Good idea. Thanks.
