Decision maker

Because decisions are hard for me, I made this.

TO DO

• untangle and abstract choiceYtotal and choiceNtotal calculations
• enable deletion of reasons
• update Open Graph Protocol image
• replace .choices fieldset h2 with legend and style

DONE

• trap for NaN when only one slider
• use Y N sliders instead of total sliders (line ~46)
• CSS: use classlist.add instead of style.color
• fix long decimals in % with .toFixed(2) if choice(Y|N) contain "." as char 2
• restrict length of reasons to a reasonable length (110 chars)

PENDING

• decide on a question text field or none?
• limit reasons to 7 decisions for/against to manage cognitive load/indecision
• use a component for list items
• make mobile-first with tabs or slider panes
• store previous choices to load again

Greame’s suggestion

For the model, remove "for" and "against" to simplify. Just take the average or the weighted average if you add weights (0.0 - 1.0). For the interface, address each individual item in isolation to allow for a clear focus. You can present the summary on a separate page to avoid distraction. All handled via localstorage or similar.

Notes

Originally ported to Meteor from a pure Javascript prototype, now reverted to the latter because… frameworks.
