Getting Started

Before you start coding, make sure you have a text editor or an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) installed. Some popular options include Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, and Atom.

Example Project

Let's create a simple project where we will add a button that changes the text of a paragraph when clicked.

  1. HTML:

    <p id="myText">Hello, World!</p>
    <button onclick="changeText()">Click me!</button>
    
  2. CSS (optional):

    #myText {
      color: blue;
    }
    
  3. JavaScript:

    function changeText() {
      document.getElementById("myText").innerHTML = "Hello, JavaScript!";
    }
