Description

Problem

Step 6 says filtering requires the Flask backend, tests, and Astro frontend, but tells learners to supply only:

  • app/server/app.py
  • app/server/test_app.py
  • app/client/src/components/DogList.astro

app/client/src/pages/index.astro owns the /api/dogs request, reads URL query parameters, and renders pagination. DogList.astro only renders the dogs prop. Omitting the page owner encourages a partial implementation that cannot reliably connect controls to server-side query parameters or preserve pagination behavior.

Suggested change

Include index.astro in the prescribed context and add implementation-agnostic behavior checks.

Acceptance criteria

  • Step 6 includes app/client/src/pages/index.astro in Copilot context.
  • The prompt requirements describe how control changes reach the API.
  • Breed-only, availability-only, and combined filtering are validated.
  • Clearing filters restores the full list.
  • Filter changes handle the current page deliberately, such as resetting to page 1.
  • Updated unit tests prove endpoint filtering rather than only the original response shape.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start with the Step 6 workshop instructions and inspect app/server/app.py, app/server/test_app.py, app/client/src/pages/index.astro, and app/client/src/components/DogList.astro. Update the prescribed context and behavior requirements so API-connected filtering, clearing, and page handling are explicit, then run the updated unit tests to verify endpoint filtering for breed-only, availability-only, and combined cases.
