JavaScript is a programming language that allows you to add interactivity and dynamic functionality to your website. It's a powerful tool that can make your website feel more dynamic and responsive. In this lesson, we'll cover the basics of JavaScript and teach you how to add simple animations, handle user input, and more.

Here's a simple exercise to get started with JavaScript:

1. Create a new HTML file called index.html.

2. Add a <script> tag to your HTML file to include your JavaScript code.

3. Create a variable called myName and assign it the value of your name.

4. Use console.log() to print the value of myName to the console.

5. Use alert() to display a message that includes your name.

6. Use prompt() to ask the user for their name and store it in a variable called userInput.

7. Use alert() to display a message that includes the user's name.

Once you've completed this exercise, try experimenting with JavaScript on your own by adding more functionality to your website!"
