Before Starting!

Where to start?

In the world of coding! Where to start?, is the biggest question nowadays.

Many will suggest you, You can start coding in notepad. Which may be a good idea but not the best.

Because, notepad is capable enough to make a source file. Open notepad then create a file and save it with extension .js

// index.js
console.log("Hello World!")

[!important]
source file, is the file which has an specific extension type.
And when we exexute the file using a compiler, it produces some output.

As I said! notepad is capable enough to create a source file, but it is not a best choice, If you are targetting to code for longer.

You must go with an IDE! ⭐
