Okay, let’s talk about this “zeri counte” thing. I wanted to make a little counter that starts at zero, you know, pretty basic stuff. So, I got down to it.
First, I created a new file. I called it because, well, it’s going to hold my counter. Then, I opened it up in my text editor. It was just a blank page, waiting for me to fill it up.

I started with the usual HTML skeleton. You know, the <!DOCTYPE html>
, <html>
, <head>
, and <body>
tags. Nothing fancy there, just the usual setup.
Inside the <head>
, I added a <title>
tag. I just put “Zeri Counte” in there. Simple enough.
Set up the body
Now, inside the <body>
, this is where the counter is going to live. I made a <div>
to hold everything. Gave it an id of “counter-value” so I could grab it later. Inside the div, I put a big fat “0”. This is the initial value of my counter.
Added buttons to control counter
Next, I needed some buttons to control the counter. I created two buttons. One with an id “increase” and the other with id “decrease”. I just put a “+” on the increase button and a “-” on the decrease button.
Implemented the counter function
Alright, now for the actual counting part. I added a <script>
tag at the end of my <body>
. In this script, I grabbed the counter value div, the increase button, and the decrease button using their ids.
I created a variable called count
and set it to 0. This is going to keep track of the counter’s current value.
- Increment: I added an event listener to the increase button. When you click it, it runs a function. Inside this function, I incremented the
count
variable by 1. Then, I updated the text of the counter value div to show the newcount
. - Decrement: I did the same for the decrease button. But instead of incrementing, I decremented the
count
by 1.
Done
And that’s it! I saved the file and opened it in my browser. There it was, a big “0” with a “+” and “-” button. I clicked the “+” and the number went up. I clicked the “-” and it went down. It works! My little counter, starting from zeri, doing its thing.
It is not the prettiest thing, but hey, it works. A simple counter made from scratch, just by following these steps. That is my whole process for the “zeri counte.” Hope that was clear!
