2020: Hello World in the Terminal

Console Bar Chart (npm package)

Project Type: Personal Side Project
Tech Stack: Pure JavaScript

The "Why?"

I was curious. How do developers ship code that other developers use? How do libraries work? I decided to strip everything down. No frameworks. No complex logic. Just: "Can I make a bar chart appear in a terminal window?"

The Result

It worked! I published it on npm. Was it useful? Maybe to 5 people. Was it educational? Absolutely. I learned about semantic versioning, package.json metadata, and the thrill of seeing npm install console-bar-chart actually do something.
