Before starting, ensure you have the following installed on your system:

• Node.js (and npm): Install the LTS (Long Term Support) version from the official Node.js website. After installation, verify with node -v and npm -v in the terminal.    
• Code Editor: A text editor like VS Code or Sublime Text. Or alternatively, you can use Command Prompt in your system.    
• Web Browser: A modern browser (Chrome, Firefox, etc.) for testing.    
• Git: (Optional) to manage your project repository and version control.

Installing Node.js is important because it provides the npm package manager used for dependencies.
