this folder somewhere you can edit and play around with these files.
Some of the learning :
1. how to set undeclared variables prohibited
2. handle arrays
3. playing around with dates in jacascript. new Date, setYear, setMonth, setDate, getDateParts, getFullYear, getMonth, getDate
Especially the formatting.
4. classes and objects in JavaScript
5. parseInt, parseFloat
and so on
