I built a Snake and Ladder game today.

This project required complex array manipulation and logic. I used HTML5, CSS3, and Vanilla JavaScript.

Yesterday I built Rock Paper Scissors. Today I moved to a 100-cell grid. This required tracking positions across a mathematical layout.

Here is how I built it:

• I used a loop to create the grid. I did not hardcode 100 divs.
• I used CSS Grid to create a 10x10 layout.
• I used a JavaScript object to manage ladders and snakes.

The object map links a trigger tile to a destination tile. This avoids long if-else statements.

Example map:

• Ladders: 4 to 14, 9 to 31, 28 to 84.
• Snakes: 17 to 7, 54 to 34, 98 to 79.

Managing spatial transitions on a dynamic interface taught me a lot about state management.
