First, create a grid system using a 2D array to represent the game board. Then, implement functions to move, rotate, and clear the tetriminos. Here's a [GitHub repository](https://github.com/jonhoo/tetris) with a complete example!

Get started by setting up an HTML5 canvas. You'll use JavaScript to draw the tetriminos and control the game logic. Check out this [tutorial](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/javascript-tetris-game-tutorial) for a great step-by-step guide!

From my experience, the key is handling collision detection for rotating and moving tetriminos properly. Once you nail that, the rest is a piece of cake!

Honestly, start with learning how to manage the game state and how to render objects on the canvas. Everything else will fall into place after.
