+# --description--
+
+For this lab, you have been provided with all the HTML and CSS. You will complete a product showcase using TypeScript.
+
+**Objective:** Fulfill the user stories below and get all the tests to pass to complete the lab.
+
+**User Stories:**
+
+1. You should create an interface named `Item` with:
+   - A `type` property that can only be `"book"`, `"electronics"`, or `"clothing"`.
+   - An `id` property of type `string`.
+   - A `price` property of type `number`.
+
+1. You should create an interface named `Book` that extends `Item`. Its `type` property should be set to the literal `"book"`. It should also have `title` and `author` properties of type `string`.
+
+1. You should create an interface named `Electronics` that extends `Item`. Its `type` property should be set to the literal `"electronics"`. It should also have `item` and `model` properties of type `string`, and an optional `warranty` property of type `number`.
+
+1. You should create an interface named `Clothing` that extends `Item`. Its `type` property should be set to the literal `"clothing"`. It should also have `item` and `brand` properties of type `string`, and an optional `size` property that can only be `"S"`, `"M"`, or `"L"`.
+
+1. You should create a union type named `Product` that combines the `Book`, `Electronics`, and `Clothing` interfaces.
+
+1. You should create a generic class named `Collection` with a type parameter `T`. The constructor should accept an array of items of type `T` and store them in a property named `items`.
+
+1. The `Collection` class should have a `getAll()` method that returns all items in the collection.
+
+1. The `Collection` class should have a `filter()` method that accepts a callback and returns only the elements from the `items` array that satisfy the given condition. The callback should receive an element of type `T` and return a boolean.
+
+1. You should create a function named `renderProduct` with a parameter of type `Product`. It should return an HTML string representing a product with:
+   - An element with the class `item` and an ID with the value of the product `id`.
+   - An element with the class `price` and the text of the product `price`.
+   - An element containing additional product information.
+
+1. The `renderProduct` function should use type narrowing to render different HTML depending on the product type:
+
+   - For books, the rendered HTML should have the format `Book: [title] by [author]`, where `[title]` and `[author]` should be replaced by the title and the author, respectively.
+   - For electronics, the rendered HTML should have the format `Electronics: [item] - [model]`. If the product has a warranty, append ` - Warranty: [warranty] year(s)` to the format. Replace `[item]`, `[model]`, and `[warranty]` with the item, the model, and the warranty, respectively.
+   - For clothing, the rendered HTML should have the format `Clothing: [item] by [brand]`. If the product has a size, append ` - Size [size]` to the format. Replace `[item]`, `[brand]`, and `[size]` with the item, the brand, and the size, respectively.
+   - If an invalid product type is encountered, throw an error with the format: `Unknown product type: [product]`, where `[product]` should be replaced by the invalid product object. Use `JSON.stringify` to convert the invalid product into a string.
+
+1. You should create a `Collection<Product>` instance that includes at least one item for each product type and assign the instance to a variable named `products`.
+
+1. You should create a `showProducts` function that displays products in the `#output` element. It should accept an optional filter representing a product type; when omitted, show all products; when provided, show only products of that type.
+
+1. You should render products by converting each product to an HTML string using the `renderProduct` function and injecting the combined result into the `#output` element.
+
+1. Clicking the `#all`, `#books`, `#electronics`, and `#clothing` buttons should display the corresponding set of products in the `#output` element.
+
+1. On page load, all products should be shown by default.
+
+# --hints--
+
+You should have an interface named `Item`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);

+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Book.hasTypeProps({name: "author", type: "string"}));
+```
+
+You should have an interface named `Electronics`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.exists(explorer.interfaces.Electronics);
+```
+
+Your `Electronics` interface should extend `Item`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Electronics.doesExtend("Item"));
+```
+
+Your `Electronics` interface should have a `type` property set to `"electronics"`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Electronics.hasTypeProps({name: "type", type: "'electronics'"}));
+```
+
+Your `Electronics` interface should have an `item` property of type `string`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Electronics.hasTypeProps({name: "item", type: "string"}));
+```
+
+Your `Electronics` interface should have a `model` property of type `string`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Electronics.hasTypeProps({name: "model", type: "string"}));
+```
+
+Your `Electronics` interface should have an optional `warranty` property of type `number`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Electronics.hasTypeProps({name: "warranty", type: "number", isOptional: true}));
+```
+
+You should have an interface named `Clothing`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.exists(explorer.interfaces.Clothing);
+```
+
+Your `Clothing` interface should extend `Item`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Clothing.doesExtend("Item"));
+```
+
+Your `Clothing` interface should have a `type` property set to `"clothing"`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Clothing.hasTypeProps({name: "type", type: "'clothing'"}));
+```
+
+Your `Clothing` interface should have an `item` property of type `string`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Clothing.hasTypeProps({name: "item", type: "string"}));
+```
+
+Your `Clothing` interface should have a `brand` property of type `string`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.interfaces.Clothing.hasTypeProps({name: "brand", type: "string"}));
+```
+
+Your `Clothing` interface should have an optional `size` property that can only be `"S"`, `"M"`, or `"L"`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+const { Clothing } = explorer.interfaces;
+assert.isTrue(Clothing.hasTypeProps({name: "size", isOptional: true}));
+assert.isTrue(Clothing.typeProps.size.isUnionOf(["'S'", "'M'", "'L'"]));
+```
+
+You should create a union type named `Product` that combines the `Book`, `Electronics`, and `Clothing` interfaces.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+const { Product } = explorer.types;
+assert.isTrue(Product.isUnionOf(["Book", "Electronics", "Clothing"]));
+```
+
+You should have a `Collection` class with a type parameter `T`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+const { Collection } = explorer.classes;
+assert.isTrue(Collection.typeParameters[0].matches("T"));
+```
+
+The constructor of your `Collection` class should accept an array of items of type `T` and store them in a property named `items`.
+
+```js
+let arr = [1, 2, 3];
+const numCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(numCollection.items, arr);
+arr = ["a", "b", "c", "d"];
+const stringCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(stringCollection.items, arr);
+```
+
+Your `Collection` class should have a `getAll` method.

+const { Collection } = explorer.classes;
+console.log(Collection.methods)
+console.log(Collection.methods.getAll)
+assert.exists(Collection.methods.getAll);
+```
+
+Your `getAll` method should return all items in the collection.
+
+```js
+let arr = [1, 2, 3];
+const numCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(numCollection.getAll(), arr);
+arr = ["a", "b", "c", "d"];
+const stringCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(stringCollection.getAll(), arr);
+```
+
+Your `Collection` class should have a `filter` method.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+const { Collection } = explorer.classes;
+assert.exists(Collection.methods.filter);
+```
+
+Your `filter` method should accept a callback function and return an array containting the elements of the `items` property that satisfy the given condition.
+
+```js
+let arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6];
+const numCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(numCollection.filter(n => n % 2 === 0), [2, 4, 6]);
+arr = ["a", "b", "c", "d"];
+const stringCollection = new Collection(arr);
+assert.deepEqual(stringCollection.filter(s => s === "c"), ["c"]);
+```
+
+You should have a function named `renderProduct`.
+
+```js
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.exists(explorer.allFunctions.renderProduct);
+```
+
+`renderProduct(product)` should return a string containing an element with the class of `item` and the ID equal to `product.id`.
+
+```js
+const testEl = document.createElement("div");
+const productObjects = [
+  { id: "c1", type: "clothing", item: "Jacket", brand: "Northloom", size: "M", price: 89.99 },
+  { id: "e1", type: "electronics", item: "Tablet", model: "Pixelon Slate-A9", warranty: 2, price: 349.99 },
+  { id: "b1", type: "book", title: "Dune", author: "Frank Herbert", price: 14.99 },
+]
+productObjects.forEach(p => {
+  const renderedProduct = renderProduct(p);
+  testEl.innerHTML = renderedProduct;
+  assert.isNotNull(testEl.querySelector(`[class="item"][id="${p.id}"]`));
+})
+```
+
+`renderProduct(product)` should return a string containing an element with the class of `price` and the text equal to `product.price`.
+
+```js
+const testEl = document.createElement("div");
+const productObjects = [
+  { id: "c1", type: "clothing", item: "Jacket", brand: "Northloom", size: "M", price: 89.99 },
+  { id: "e1", type: "electronics", item: "Tablet", model: "Pixelon Slate-A9", warranty: 2, price: 349.99 },

+productObjects.forEach(p => {
+  const renderedProduct = renderProduct(p);
+  testEl.innerHTML = renderedProduct;
+  const price = testEl.querySelector(`[class="price"]`);
+  assert.include(price.innerText, p.price.toString());
+})
+```
+
+When `renderProduct` is called with a `Book` product `p`, it should return a string containing an element with the text following the format `Book: [title] by [author]`. Replace `[title]` and `[author]` with the corresponding properties of `p`.
+
+```js
+const testEl = document.createElement("div");
+const productObjects = [
+  { id: "b1", type: "book", title: "Dune", author: "Frank Herbert", price: 14.99 },
+  { id: "b4", type: "book", title: "The Lord of the Rings", author: "J.R.R. Tolkien", price: 24.99 }
+
+]
+productObjects.forEach(p => {
+  const renderedProduct = renderProduct(p);
+  testEl.innerHTML = renderedProduct;
+  const expectedText = `Book: ${p.title} by ${p.author}`;
+  assert.include(testEl.innerText, expectedText);
+})
+```
+
+When `renderProduct` is called with an `Electronics` product `p`, it should return a string containing an element with the text following either the format `Electronics: [item] - [model]` or `Electronics: [item] - [model] - Warranty: [warranty] year(s)` if `p.warranty` is not undefined. Replace `[item]`, `[model]`, and `[warranty]` with the corresponding properties of `p`.
+
+```js
+const testEl = document.createElement("div");
+const productObjects = [
+  { id: "e1", type: "electronics", item: "Tablet", model: "Pixelon Slate-A9", warranty: 2, price: 349.99 },
+  { id: "e2", type: "electronics", item: "Smartphone", model: "NovaCore X1-Alpha", warranty: 2, price: 699.99 },
+  { id: "e3", type: "electronics", item: "Headphones", model: "EchoSphere Silent-7", price: 129.99 },
+  { id: "e4", type: "electronics", item: "Laptop", model: "HexaBook Orion-15", warranty: 3, price: 1199.99 }
+
+]
+productObjects.forEach(p => {
+  const renderedProduct = renderProduct(p);
+  testEl.innerHTML = renderedProduct;
+  const baseFormat = `Electronics: ${p.item} - ${p.model}`;
+  const expectedText = !p.warranty ? baseFormat : baseFormat + ` - Warranty: ${p.warranty} year(s)`;
+  assert.include(testEl.innerText, expectedText);
+  if (!p.warranty) {
+    assert.notInclude(testEl.innerText, `undefined`);
+  }
+})
+```
+
+When `renderProduct` is called with a `Clothing` product `p`, it should return a string containing an element with the text following either the format `Clothing: [item] by [brand]` or `Clothing: [item] by [brand] - Size [size]` if `p.size` is not undefined. Replace `[item]`, `[brand]`, and `[size]` with the corresponding properties of `p`.
+
+```js
+const testEl = document.createElement("div");
+const productObjects = [
+  { id: "c4", type: "clothing", item: "T-Shirt", brand: "Fabricon", price: 19.99 },
+  { id: "c3", type: "clothing", item: "Jeans", brand: "BlueWeave", size: "L", price: 59.99 },
+  { id: "c2", type: "clothing", item: "Hoodie", brand: "CozyForge", size: "S", price: 49.99 },
+  { id: "c1", type: "clothing", item: "Jacket", brand: "Northloom", size: "M", price: 89.99 }
+
+]
+productObjects.forEach(p => {
+  const renderedProduct = renderProduct(p);
+  testEl.innerHTML = renderedProduct;
+  const baseFormat = `Clothing: ${p.item} by ${p.brand}`;
+  const expectedText = !p.size ? baseFormat : baseFormat + ` - Size ${p.size}`;
+  assert.include(testEl.innerText, expectedText);
+  if (!p.size) {
+    assert.notInclude(testEl.innerText, `undefined`);
+  }
+})
+```
+
+When `renderProduct` is called with an invalid product, it should throw an error with the format `Unknown product type: [p]`. Replace `[p]` with the invalid product stringified with `JSON.stringify`.
+
+```js
+const invalidProduct = { item: "T-Shirt", price: 19.99 };
+const expected = `Unknown product type: ${JSON.stringify(invalidProduct)}`;
+try {
+  renderProduct(invalidProduct);
+  assert.fail();
+} catch({name, message}) {
+  if (name == "AssertionError") {
+    assert.fail("renderProduct should throw with invalid product");
+  } else {
+    assert.equal(message, expected);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+You should create a `Collection<Product>` instance and assign it to a variable named `products`.
+
+```js
+assert.instanceOf(products, Collection);
+const explorer = await __helpers.Explorer(code);
+assert.isTrue(explorer.variables.products.value.typeArguments[0].matches("Product"));
+```
+
+Your `products` variable should contain at least one item for each product type.
+
+```js
+assert.isTrue(products.items.some(p => p.type === "book"));
+assert.isTrue(products.items.some(p => p.type === "electronics"));
+assert.isTrue(products.items.some(p => p.type === "clothing"));
+```
+
+You should have a function named `showProducts`.
+
+```js
+assert.isFunction(showProducts);
+```
+
+Clicking the `#all` button should display all the products in the `#output` element.
+
+```js
+const len = products.items.length;
+assert.isAtLeast(len, 3);
+books.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+all.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+assert.lengthOf(output.querySelectorAll(".item"), len);
+```
+
+Clicking the `#books` button should display the corresponding set of products in the `#output` element.
+
+```js
+const len = products.items.length;
+assert.isAtLeast(len, 3);
+let count = 0;
+products.items.forEach(i => {
+  if (i.type === "book") {
+    count++;
+  }
+});
+clothing.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+books.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+assert.lengthOf(output.querySelectorAll(".item"), count);
+```
+
+Clicking the `#electronics` button should display the corresponding set of products in the `#output` element.
+
+```js
+const len = products.items.length;
+assert.isAtLeast(len, 3);
+let count = 0;
+products.items.forEach(i => {
+  if (i.type === "electronics") {
+    count++;
+  }
+});
+clothing.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+electronics.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+assert.lengthOf(output.querySelectorAll(".item"), count);
+```
+
+Clicking the `#clothing` button should display the corresponding set of products in the `#output` element.
+
+```js
+const len = products.items.length;
+assert.isAtLeast(len, 3);
+let count = 0;
+products.items.forEach(i => {
+  if (i.type === "clothing") {
+    count++;
+  }
+});
+books.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+clothing.dispatchEvent(new Event("click"));
+assert.lengthOf(output.querySelectorAll(".item"), count);
+```
+
+All products should be visible by default when the page loads. Use the `DOMContentLoaded` event to ensure it.
+
+```js
+const len = products.items.length;
+assert.isAtLeast(len, 3);
+document.dispatchEvent(new Event("DOMContentLoaded"));
+assert.lengthOf(output.querySelectorAll(".item"), len);
+```
