Courses Plus Student 12,666 PointsIn the video, he used coding that was much more simpler than mine. How do I know where I can simplify my code?
In the video, he used...
$('.work').on('sticky-start', function () { $(this).append('<a href="mailto:example@example.com" class="email-text"> Email us</a>'); });
$('.work').on('sticky-end', function () { $('.email-text').remove(); });
I used...
$('.work').on('sticky-start', function () { $('.work').html('Want us to work on your project? <a href="mailto:example@example.com" class="email-text"> Email us</a>'); });
$('.work').on('sticky-end', function () { $('.work').html('Want us to work on your project?'); });
Both work of course, but I want to know how do I know where I can simply my coding? Also what is Email&npsp;us?

As you do more development, you gradually build a "mental toolbox" of practices and strategies, and which situations they handle more efficiently. But I also notice that your code adds an extra message that the more concise code doesn't. If you remove that difference, the code sizes will be very close.
And I suspect you misspelled "
", which is the HTML character code for "non-breaking space". It will appear as a space in the document, but it insures that the words on either side of it will appear on the same line.
