Adding a "Randomness" Concept Exercise to the JavaScript track

SneakyMallard · June 17, 2025, 6:37am

I’ve created a draft for a “Randomness” concept exercise, based on the Java track’s Captain’s Log exercise.
Is it ok for me to go ahead and open a PR, or is there something I should improve first?

Open the PR and let’s discuss there!

Thanks <3

This PR adds `hints.md`,`introduction.md`, `instructions.md`, `config.json`, `de…sign.md`, `exemplar.js`, `captains-log.js`, and `captains-log.spec.js` to a new exercise on the JavaScript track. A couple of questions to a reviewer: - The other exercises have these files: .gitignore, .npmrc, LICENSE, package.json, jest.config.js, global.d.ts, eslint.config.mjs, and babel.config.js. These are not mentioned in the docs though. Should I add these, or does that happen automatically somehow? - How do I generate a UUID?
