Build a Beautiful Calculator Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (With Source Code)
This is a basic calculator with a clean interface. It handles addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The layout is built using HTML, the design is handled with CSS (dark theme), and JavaScript does all the logic—input handling, validation, and calculation.

Beautiful Calculator Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
Why I Built This
I created this project as part of my personal mission: to turn real ideas into real, working code—and then share it with the world.
Like many developers, I started with tutorials and theory. But what truly improved my skills was building things—projects that could run, break, and be fixed again. That’s exactly what this calculator is. It’s simple, clean, and fully functional. It doesn’t use any libraries or frameworks—just HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
But more importantly, it’s something you can learn from, extend, or even completely rebuild in your own way.
Introducing the Project
This is a basic calculator web app that performs all primary arithmetic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It’s designed with a dark theme, responsive layout, and smooth functionality.
Whether you're a beginner wanting to understand how a UI connects with logic, or a more experienced developer looking for a lightweight project to remix, this calculator offers a solid starting point.
No frameworks
Simple file structure
Self-contained logic
100% open-source

Learn how structure (HTML) connects with style (CSS) and functionality (JS)
Understand the basics of event handling and input validation
Practice building interactive web applications
See how a real, finished web component looks like
It’s not just code—it’s an example of idea-to-execution.
What You’ll Learn
By going through the project, you’ll get practical experience in:
Writing clean and semantic HTML
Designing responsive and visually appealing layouts with CSS
Handling user input, button events, and basic validation in JavaScript
Avoiding common UX mistakes like double operators or broken expressions
Structuring files for real-world usage
Even though this is a small app, the skills are highly transferable to larger projects.
