Lesson 6 – Event Delegation: Mastering Efficiency in Interaction 🎯✨

Welcome to Lesson 6! By now, you’re no stranger to events—you’ve clicked, hovered, typed, and added tasks like a pro. But what if your webpage is full of dynamic elements that didn’t exist when the page loaded? Fear not! Event delegation is here to save the day (and your sanity).

Think of event delegation as hiring a manager instead of assigning individual tasks to every single worker. It’s efficient, elegant, and will make your code run smoother than a fresh install of Linux.

Lesson 5 – Event Magic: Making Web Pages Interactive 🎩✨

Welcome to Lesson 5! Today, we’re going to make your web pages come alive with JavaScript events. Clicks, hovers, and key presses will all have a purpose, and you’ll finally feel like the web is under your control (in the best way possible).

Let’s set up our environment and dive in!

Setting Up the Project 🛠️

We’ll create a new project folder, write an HTML file, add JavaScript for event handling, and serve it using Caddy.

Lesson 4 – DOM Manipulation: Turning the Web into Your Personal Playground 🎢✨

Welcome to Lesson 4! Today, we’re going to learn how to use JavaScript to interact with HTML elements on a page. Think of JavaScript as your magic wand, and you’re the wizard who can add text, buttons, and even make things disappear—no magic spells required!

Setting Up the Playground: Installing VS Code and Caddy

To start working like a real developer, we need to set up our workspace. For this, we’ll install VS Code as our coding headquarters and Caddy as our local server so we can see our updates live (yes, you’ll be your own system admin, but on a small scale).

Lesson 3 – Arrays and Objects: Your Treasure Chests of Data 💎📦

Welcome back, data wrangler! This time, we’re diving into arrays and objects—two powerful tools in JavaScript that help you manage data with ease. Think of arrays and objects as your trusty treasure chests where you can store, organize, and retrieve anything you need. Whether it’s a list of tasks or details about your pet hamster, arrays and objects have got you covered.

Lesson 2 – Loops and Conditionals: Making Decisions and Repeating Yourself (Without Going Crazy) 🔄🤔

Welcome back, intrepid JavaScript adventurer! You’ve mastered variables and functions, so now it’s time to dive into the world of loops and conditionals—two magical tools that will let you make decisions and repeat tasks with ease. Think of them as the “if” and “do-it-again” spells in your JavaScript spellbook!

Conditionals – The Art of Making Decisions 🛤️

Conditionals allow you to make decisions in your code, so it can react differently depending on the situation—like choosing which pizza topping to order based on how you’re feeling.

Lesson 1 – Variables, Functions, and Other Magic 🧙‍♂️✨

Welcome to the very first step on your journey to mastering JavaScript! By the end of this lesson, you’ll have a solid understanding of variables and functions. And no, you don’t need a wizard’s hat or a PhD to follow along—just a curious mind and maybe a cup of coffee (or tea, if you’re feeling fancy).

What Are Variables? (Spoiler: Not That Scary)

Think of variables as little boxes where you can store information—like that drawer you have at home that’s filled with random things you swear you’ll need one day. In JavaScript, variables hold pieces of data that you can use and reuse in your code.
