Web Development Q1 Project

The goal of this project is to demonstrate your mastery of the concepts covered over the past quarter. Like your capstone, you're expected to come up with a project idea and implement it all on your own. Unlike a PhD dissertation, you are not expected to discover and publish an idea that's never been done before. Asking your classmates and instructors for help throughout the process is strongly encouraged, but your work must be your own.

During Project Week, you'll have approximately 24 hours of class time to implement your idea. It'll most likely not be enough time, so plan on allocating extra time for it outside of class. This is a Big Deal Week, and you should put maximum effort into making it successful. On the last day of project week, you'll give short demonstration of your project to the class.

Objectives

• Explain what the Unix shell is.
• Explain why the Unix shell is important.
• Use the Unix shell to manipulate your laptop's operating system.

What's the Unix shell?

A Unix shell is a command line user interface between you and your computer's operating system. In other words, a Unix shell allows you to type commands to get things done on your computer. Common tasks you can do from a Unix shell include manipulating directories, files, and programs.

lodash

In this assignment, we want you to re-implement some of the most popular methods found in [lodash][lodash]. This task will provide you two incredible learning opportunities: first, you'll have the opportunity to apply your knowledge of JavaScript; second, you'll learn through this experience that lodash, similar to all JavaScript libraries, are written with the same JavaScript you've been learning!

If you're unfamiliar with lodash, it's [a popular utility library][popular-utility-library] written in JavaScript. Inside of it, you'll find a collection of methods, such as [forEach()][for-each], which replaces the boilerplate code that developers often find themselves writing--e.g., code that iterates on every item of a collection.

Here's an example:

// Without lodash, you have to create your own implementation of forEach.
function forEach(arr, callback) {
