Start with a basic HTML canvas to draw your game board. Then, write JavaScript functions to handle the game logic, including piece movement, rotation, and collision detection. Don't forget the game loop to keep everything running smoothly!

I coded a Tetris clone last summer. Use a 2D array to represent the game board and update it with each move. You'll need functions for rotating pieces and checking for filled rows.

Honestly, you can find open-source Tetris projects on GitHub. Fork one of those and start tinkering to understand the basics.
