WV-4813 fix: Refactored broken code that had been copied 3 times#4871
Merged
Conversation
…ed the buggy links. Copying and pasting code is an awful software development practice. Copy-pasted code provides a sugar rush of quickly developed UI, but at a great cost since it ultimately slows down project progress by increasing technical debt, code bulk, complexity, and bugs. On Cordova work, I have to start with the DOM, and navigate back to the right place in the code, and copy-pasted code has misled me so many times and caused hours (or days by this point) of wasted time and frustration.
