What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I'm proud that I was able to practice JavaScript and learn the new trim() method. Next time, I will ensure I have a solid strategy before starting to code.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

I encountered difficulties using JavaScript for email validation. To overcome this, I did some research and found a helpful solution on StackOverflow:

function validateEmail(email) {
  var re = /\S+@\S+\.\S+/;
  return re.test(email);
}

However, I don't understand why re is not a string and still contains unusual characters.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Any feedback is welcome, but I would specifically appreciate help with JavaScript validation.
