We are going to make a website that will take our notes and saves them for our future use using HTML, CSS and JavaScript .

Prerequisite:

Approach:

  • HTML: We will create the basic framework of the website using HTML.
  • Bootstrap: makes our work easier as compared to CSS. So we have used Bootstrap to beautify our framework.
  • JavaScript: The basic logic of saving the notes and deleting them is inside the index.js file.

Example: Here we first design the structure of our project then we will code for the functionality.

HTML
