💛 JavaScript Fundamentals

Welcome to my central JavaScript repository. This project documents my complete learning path. The root directory showcases my independent solutions to algorithms and challenges, while guided coursework is archived in specific sub-directories.

📋 Repository Structure

1. Solo Projects (Root): My own unguided solutions to logic puzzles and algorithms.
2. Guided Coursework:
   • /000 - BroCode Tutorials: Syntax, DOM manipulation, and core theory.
   • /001 - FCC Guided Projects: Walkthroughs and tutorial-based builds.

⚡ How to Run

Option 1: Run with Node.js (CLI)

For pure logic scripts (like the unguided projects), this is the fastest method.

1. Navigate to the project folder:

   cd "05 - Email Masker"

2. Run the file:

   node index.js

Option 2: Run in Browser

This is required for DOM projects or if you prefer Chrome Developer Tools.

• For Bro Code Projects: Open the index.html file inside the 000 - BroCode Tutorials subfolders.
• For Unguided Scripts:
  1. Create a temporary test.html file in the specific project folder.
  2. Add a script tag pointing to the JS file:

     <script src="index.js"></script>

  3. Open test.html in Chrome and press F12 to see the Console output.

🧠 Key Concepts Learned

• DOM Manipulation: Selecting elements, Event Listeners.
• Algorithms: Card Counting, String Inversion, Sorting.
• Functional Programming: Using .map(), .filter(), and .reduce() for clean data handling.
