Checkpoint Project

Every module so far has taught one piece of building interactive pages. This module is one project that uses all of them together: a real, working page, not another isolated exercise.

Why This Matters

A real interactive page never uses just one skill from this course. It selects and updates the DOM, listens for events, fetches data asynchronously, and talks to a server, all in service of one goal. This project is where those pieces stop being separate.

What You’ll Build

A single-page application that draws on every module in this course: DOM manipulation, event handling (including delegation), asynchronous data fetching with proper error handling, and at least one piece of browser storage so the page remembers something between visits.

Outcome

By the end of this module, and this course, you’ll have one complete, working interactive page, not a folder of disconnected exercises. From here, a follow-up course picks up JavaScript frameworks.

Let’s build it.
