The Simple Library

Built with vanilla JavaScript, this project was my first taste of OOP, getting some reps in for prototypal-inheritance, JS classes, constructor functions, DOM manipulation, and local storage.

One of the simplest projects I've done, but easily one of the most memorable && fun.

What I Learned

  • Object-oriented programming with JavaScript classes and prototypes
  • DOM manipulation and event handling
  • Form validation and data persistence
  • Responsive web design principles
  • Code organization and project structure

Project Purpose

This project was completed as part of The Odin Project's JavaScript curriculum, focusing on:

  • Working with constructor functions and object prototypes
  • Implementing CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations
  • Understanding the separation of data and display logic
  • Practicing clean, maintainable code structure

This was also the first project in Odin's Javascript Course, which meant it was one of the simplest projects I've ever attempted - but at the same time, this was one of the projects I had the most fun with. Even looking back through the code now, especially the v1 code, a lot of it looks super messy and not DRY, but I can still remember every line.
