Reflection 📍
This project has been a significant and rewarding experience for me. I took on the challenge of working on an end-to-end project independently and I am proud of the results. It was enjoyable to explore what worked and what didn't, even when it meant making difficult decisions between various design options and sacrificing a well-crafted design for the sake of consistency. My web designs prioritize the user's perspective, but I now realize the value of incorporating the creator's perspective as well. Although I have completed this project, I will be continuing its development in pursuit of perfection. Throughout this journey, I learned my skills in creating interactive websites, which was challenging yet rewarding. This project taught me the importance of time management in tackling such significant undertakings and how even the smallest details can enhance user engagement.
