Hey Tori. Great post! I loved the way you described the steps for achieving the final implementation, you explained it in a clear and simple way :)
Just a tiny detail that I noticed in your code was that you are not really clearing the interval when you click the reset button. That results in a weird interval between the seconds. Try to click the reset button then start the countdown again.
One way to solve that is to in fact clear the interval within the timerReset function.
Instead of clearInterval( () => { this.interval; });
you should have clearInterval(this.interval);

Hmm... I'll look into it because that's what I wanted to do (what you said). So if it's not doing that I'm unsure. Otherwise it get incrementally faster and that's now what we want at all. Thanks for pointing it out.
