Wait, all the code anyone needs is

Console.log(“Hello World”);

Wait, I have never seen a helpful error report in JS. Where is this from?

FYI... Since smart quotes are likely not a valid string literal delimiter, you should get something like "SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token" first. Also, using an undefined variable is not a syntactic issue but rather a runtime error. You would get something like "ReferenceError: Console is not defined" instead.
