+# Reverse String
+
+For example:
+input: "cool"
+output: "looc"
+
+
+## Setup
+
+Go through the setup instructions for JavaScript to
+install the necessary dependencies:
+
+http://exercism.io/languages/javascript
+
+## Making the Test Suite Pass
+
+Execute the tests with:
+
+    jasmine <exercise-name>.spec.js
+
+Replace `<exercise-name>` with the name of the current exercise. E.g., to
+test the Reverse String exercise:
+
+    jasmine reverse-string.spec.js
+
+In many test suites all but the first test have been skipped.
+
+Once you get a test passing, you can unskip the next one by
+changing `xit` to `it`.
+
+## Source
+
+This is an exercise to introduce users to using Exercism and arrays and strings [https://medium.freecodecamp.org/how-to-reverse-a-string-in-javascript-in-3-different-ways-75e4763c68cb](https://medium.freecodecamp.org/how-to-reverse-a-string-in-javascript-in-3-different-ways-75e4763c68cb)
+
+## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
