I spent more than an hour trying trying to debug why two functions were always returning undefined. I even put in conditional breakpoints and executed the statements to confirm the logic was correct.

I forgot return.

undefined

epic fail

    💔 omg. So much heartbreak for you. It happens to everyone (some silly mistake), but it still sucks every time

    I know your struggle. I sometimes forget to assign the result of a method/function to a variable and wonder why it didn't work

    @CorruptComputer I was actually using typescript, but I didn't annotate the function. Otherwise it would have been a compiler error. Double face palm.

    It's always "funny" to spend an hour or so writing some wonderful code and fire up the browser and and sit and wonder why the magic isn't happening.

    Then...oh yeah- I need to actually call that method.

    Goddammit.
