I've recently started playing D&D, and when leveling my rogue up to L3 I chose the Arcane trickster archetype. I was doing some reading on the archetype later, and saw that two of my 3 L1 spells have to be from certain categories, but the spells I chose when levelling up didn't meet those restrictions. Should the level up process restrict the spells available to choose? I might have missed it, but I don't think it even informed me of the restriction, much less enforced it.
It would be helpful if it at least notified of the restriction when choosing arcane trickster. Or maybe when going to add spells, it could just show text explaining the restriction and when you can choose spells outside of the enchantment/illusions list. Otherwise, without going to the handbook and reading through it, one would never know.
If you expand the Spellcasting feature it does explain it in there, but you’re right, it would be nice if they’d finally get around to making it actively restrict our choices.

Like Sposta said, it says it in the spellcasting feature right where it says it in the book. People read their class features right? (Who am I kidding, we all know they don't...)

Is this just something D&D Beyond can't do?
It’s something DDB can’t do at present, we have to police ourselves in this regard.
