DIY: Decode Ways

Explore how to decode a string of digits into all possible letter combinations by mapping numbers to letters from A to Z. Understand the rules of valid groupings and implement a function in JavaScript to count decoding possibilities, improving your grasp of encryption and validation in cyber security.
