JavaScript has no native means of getting input. Every method that exists is an extension provided by the host environment (prompt is an example of that)

Different host environments have different methods. You've identified one for browsers, DOM is another. NodeJS has the Readline API (among others). There are lots of other environments (WSH, JXA, etc, etc).

Add an event listener to an input listening for the return key (keyCode 13), then grab the value and do what you will with it: Edit: JSFiddle

Building games with prompt can be quite boring, but I got a solution for you that might spice things up with forms. Here's a simple little quiz game I built as an example for you. The game is simple just complete the word given to you. First I start with the form: index.html ```html Finish the word: Appl
Submit ``` Notice that the input tag has an id of "question1" I'll be targeting that element with Javascripts document.getElementById method which targets elements in the DOM. And also notice the onclick event object binded to the button element. This is used to call a the function submitInfo within our script containing the code for the function. myscript.js ```javascript function submitInfo(){ var question1 = document.getElementById("question1").value; if(question1 == "Apple"){ confirm("You got it!"); } } ``` Above is the Javascript file in which contains my code. Here I placed my submitInfo function which is activated by the button element in my HTML file. As explained earlier, I attached the event object onclick="function call goes here" to the ** button** tag in order to allow the function to be called once the button is clicked. Now lets discuss the Javascript code. I store the users value in the variable question1. The way I obtain the value from the input tag is to target the input tag with the document.getElementById function, and within the function I specify that I want to target the question1 id associated with the input tag. Once targeted I use the value property in Javascript to obtain the text value placed within the input tag. I then use an if statement to evaluate the variable to see if the user got the right answer. I hope this gave you some inspiration on making games without the use of prompts. Have a good day. :)

<input type="text" id="input1" />
<button onclick="myJsFunction()"></button>
<script type="text/javascript">
 function myJsFunction(){
    var text=document.getElementById('input1').value;
 }
</script>

var number = window.prompt("What number?");

JS and python are interpreted languages which means that in order to execute the code you write you need something to read and execute the code you write. In the case of JS this something is usually referred to as a JavaScript Engine. Your browser has one built into it. NodeJS is a free-standing eng…
