## Features

- **Disallows illegal inputs**: Only allows numbers in fields. Each field can have a range (ie. years is from 0-30).

- **Updates results immediately**: Uses an asycronous `useEffect` hook to update the result and graph each time the user changes something.

- **Responsive design**: Works and maintains high quality appearance on all browsers, devices, and screen sizes.

## Inspired by

This calculator is inpsired by the Australian Government's [Compound Interest Calculator](https://moneysmart.gov.au/budgeting/compound-interest-calculator) built for the Money Smart website.
