Description

• sets baseline objects, arrays, etc.
• confines various logic parts to functions
• defines possible state paths through the stepper (of which there are 14 valid path routes)
• tracks the parts of the path on change (updates state.parts)
• updates the full state.current on change
• compares the state.current to state.possibilities to determine license rec or error
• roughly renders out the recommended license within the "license recommendation" area
• includes working comments and some console.log statements for testing and debugging purposes

Technical details

• ties stepper choice behavior to a dynamic state path that amends at each fieldset change
• when a fieldset is changed, the current state is amended to reflect the updated state.parts, and then combined into the full updated state.current
• state.current is compared to state.possibilities; if there is a match then a license rec can be made
• if a rec matches, store that within state.props.license for use later
• if a license rec can be made then the license recommendation is rendered with the appropriate license (for now it just replaces the placeholder title with a hyphenated one for testing).
• the stepper begins with some fieldsets hidden, and based upon the resulting state from user choice additional fields are displayed or hidden to reflect the correct path flow.
• some bugs remain in the logic, but that'll be worked out in the next batch of PRs (it still needs proper error handling as well), as well as resetting values if someone moves backwards in the steps.

Next up is building out a full render of the license in the "rec area" via a templated Web Component in a simplistic fashion (I'll probably just do one template per license and then refactor in future PRs to be more dynamic), and setting the stage for some error handling for when license is "unknown". Attached to or following that I'll work out the holes in the stepper rendering to smooth out any bugs.
