Mastering JavaScript and DOM Manipulation

Introduction

In this Lab, you'll step into the world of web development through the eyes of Alex, a budding web developer tasked with creating a dynamic personal finance tracker. To build a user-friendly application that allows users to input and track their daily expenses and income. The goal is clear - to develop an interface that's both intuitive and engaging, ensuring users can easily manage their finances without any hassle.
