OVERVIEW

About the challenge

Build a basic web app that generates a music playlist based on the user’s mood. Users can select their mood (happy, sad, energetic, relaxed), and the app suggests a list of songs. The focus is on simple UI and basic logic—no need for complex AI!

Why It Works for Beginners:

✅ Simple UI with basic buttons and dropdowns

✅ Easy-to-understand logic (if mood = happy, suggest upbeat songs)

✅ Can be built with just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
