JavaScript is if loops, DOM manipulation, template literals, nested arrays and objects, and a load of new commands I have literally never worked with or even seen before last week. Here I am feeling like I've taken the first baby step (a huge step!) in to the right direction. I can actually start a project, ask the right questions, and use the correct resources. I may not be able to finish. It may take me all day. But I can start and I'm not going to take that achievement for granted. https://victoriarainc.github.io/week-02-project/ This page isn't beautiful or interactive but all that was required of me was to print those same answers to the console (a tool in Chrome you can access by right-clicking on that page and clicking 'Inspect'). Before submitting I realized my page was just completely empty. A white page. Which is what my instructors are expecting but I didn't want to settle for that. I had a few extra hours last night and spent that time 'd...

The task itself seemed pretty simple but if you read my .js file here:  https://github.com/victoriarainc/form_builder  than you can actually read in the comments under "the long way" the thought and problem solving I put into trying to reconstruct a dynamic input form. As in, a form that had the proper space for me to input the different types of information. I understood...
