This Project is all about demonstrating my mastery of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I built a complete browser-based card matching game (also known as Concentration).

This project was built from scratch and is a part of Udacity's Front-End Web Developer Nanodegree program. The project will be evaluated by a Udacity code reviewer according to the project rubric

Udacity also provides the starter code for this project which can be found here

The game board consists of 16 cards arranged randomly in a grid. The deck is made up of 8 pairs of cards, each with different players on one side. The cards are arranged randomly on the grid with the players side down.

Match the same players by flipping the cards in minimum amount of moves and time for a higher score and rating.

Each turn:

• The User flips one card over to reveal its underlying player.
• The User then turns over a second card, trying to find the corresponding card with the same player.
• If the cards match, both cards stay flipped over
• If the cards do not match, both cards are returned to their initial hidden state

The game ends once all cards have been correctly matched.
