Hit a wall on my first real project last Tuesday

I was trying to build a simple to-do list app and spent 3 hours stuck on why my JavaScript wasn't saving tasks. Turns out I forgot a single curly brace in my function. Has anyone else had a tiny syntax error that took forever to catch?

Tbh I spent 2 hours debugging a missing semicolon once. Felt so dumb.

Used to think curly braces were overrated. Not anymore.

Totally flipped my view too. Braces matter way more than I gave them credit for.
