One way to manage complexity is not having to go back and rewrite code if the data changes (you just update the data). This way, even a novice could update your app when needed. You want to have a real world view of what you're doing here. It just makes a whole lot of sense! This reduces complexity for you (the app creator) and anyone that comes after you (that's one of the reasons you comment your code). Without the use of a list, your app should be REALLY difficult to create because you would have to hardcode a ton of variables...etc...

File Structure
File Structure
Learning file structure is a very important aspect of learning HTML. This will focus on file structure.
I would like to explain how a website is structured in layman’s terms. A website consists of a root folder that contains files with code in them (HTML, CSS, JS, etc.) that can be linked to one another. I will further condense this explanation to ‘Code inside of Files inside of Folders’.
We will now create a root folder for our website. Follow the steps below exactly.
1) Right click (on the desktop) > New Folder
2) Rename your folder to: Root_Folder (FYI, you will have to double click on the name of the folder to rename it).
3) Open TextEdit or any text file editor > Create a new file and save it as: index.html
4) Type the code shown below in your index.html file that you just created.
How do I write HTML on Mac?
Create an HTML file
In the TextEdit app on your Mac, choose File > New, then choose Format > Make Plain Text.
Enter the HTML code.
Choose File > Save, type a name followed by the extension . html (for example, enter index. html), then click Save.
When prompted about the extension to use, click “Use . html.”
HTML headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags:
Example
Example
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<h2>This is a heading</h2>
<h3>This is a heading</h3>
