4,347 PointsMy solution using $.ajax()
$.ajax('data/rooms.json',{
type: 'json',
method: 'GET',
success: (rooms) => {
let html = '<ul class="rooms">';
let $div = $('#roomList');
$.each(rooms,(index,room) => {
let roomNum = room.room;
let isAvailable = room.available ? 'empty' : 'full';
html += `<li class="${isAvailable}">${roomNum}</li>`;
});
html += '</ul>';
$div.html(html);
},
error: (jqXHR) => {
let $div = $('#roomList');
$div.html(`<p>Error: ${jqXHR.status} - File: ${jqXHR.statusText}!</p>`);
}
});

<li class="${isAvailable}">${roomNum}</li>
and I change to:
'<li class="' + isAvailable + '">' + roomNum + ' </li>';
Why you use the ${isAvailable}, ${roomNum} any documentation of this?

8,608 PointsWhy are you using //type : 'json'// ? In the documentary for the $.ajax method it said that //type// is "An alias for method. You should use type if you're using versions of jQuery prior to 1.9.0." So I think it really should be //type: 'GET'//.
