Prerequisites

• Ensure you have Node.js installed on your system. This will include npm (Node Package Manager), which is used to manage dependencies and run scripts.

Cloning the Repository

1. Clone this repository to your local machine using:

   git clone [repository-url]

2. Navigate into the project directory:

   cd js-super-basics

Installing Dependencies

npm install

Running and Testing Your Solutions

Each lesson comes with a set of challenges that you can test to ensure your solution is correct.

I recommend you run the tests in watch-mode

npm run watch

When you complete a challenge. Simply remove this comment at the end of the file:

// ✅ REMOVE THIS LINE to check your work

OR

You can manually run tests like this 👇

1. Navigate to the root of your project directory.
2. To run the tests for a specific lesson, use the following command:

   npm test -- [test-file-name]

   For example, to test your solutions for Lesson 2, run:

   npm test -- __tests__/02_Variables.test.js
