This is my personal project for learning web development and exploring modern technologies. It's a work in progress as I continue to build my skills in creating interactive web applications.

What I'm Building

An interactive dashboard that displays real-time information from various sources:

What I'm Building

• Weather updates with current conditions and forecasts

• Latest technology news headlines

• GitHub user activity and repository statsAn interactive dashboard that displays real-time information from various sources:

• Cryptocurrency price tracking

• Daily inspirational quotes

• Drag & drop widget reordering

• Weather updates with current conditions and forecasts## What This Project RepresentsA modern, customizable dashboard built with React 19 + TypeScript + Vite, featuring real-time data from multiple APIs with drag-and-drop widget reordering.This template provides a minimal setup to get React working in Vite with HMR and some ESLint rules.

Features include automatic data updates, dark/light theme switching, and responsive design for all devices.

• Latest technology news headlines

Technologies I'm Learning

• GitHub user activity and repository stats

• React - Building interactive user interfaces with modern hooks

• TypeScript - Adding type safety and better code organization- Cryptocurrency price tracking

• API Integration - Working with external data sources and handling async operations

• Responsive Design - Creating layouts that work across different screen sizes- Daily inspirational quotesThis dashboard is my hands-on exploration into modern web development. As someone passionate about learning new technologies, I decided to dive deep into React, TypeScript, and modern web APIs to create something both functional and visually appealing.

• State Management - Managing application state and data flow

• Build Tools - Using Vite for development and production builds- Drag & drop widget reordering

Current Progress

✅ Basic dashboard layout and structure Features include automatic data updates, dark/light theme switching, and responsive design for all devices.

✅ Widget system with reusable components

✅ API integrations for all data sources ### Technologies I'm Learning

✅ Theme switching functionality

✅ Drag and drop widget reordering

✅ Responsive design implementation

🔄 Ongoing: Code optimization and feature refinements- React - Building interactive user interfaces with modern hooks

Next Steps in My Learning Journey- TypeScript - Adding type safety and better code organizationI created an interactive dashboard that brings together different types of information in one place:

Short Term Goals (Next Few Weeks)- API Integration - Working with external data sources and handling async operations

• Add unit tests to practice testing methodologies

• Implement error boundaries for better error handling- Responsive Design - Creating layouts that work across different screen sizes

• Create widget customization features (let users change cities, categories, etc.)

• Explore adding more visual feedback and animations- State Management - Managing application state and data flow

Medium Term Goals (Next Few Months)- Build Tools - Using Vite for development and production builds- 🌤️ Weather updates - See current conditions and forecasts- @vitejs/plugin-react uses Babel for Fast Refresh

• Learn backend development to build my own APIs

• Add user authentication system

• Build database integration for saving user preferences

• Create additional widgets (Calendar, Todo List, RSS feeds)### Current Progress- 📰 Latest tech news - Stay updated with what's happening in technology

• Experiment with widget resize functionality

Long Term Learning Path

• Dive deeper into backend technologies (Node.js, Python, or similar)✅ Basic dashboard layout and structure - 🐙 GitHub activity - Track coding progress and repositories- @vitejs/plugin-react-swc uses SWC for Fast Refresh

• Explore mobile app development with React Native

• Study advanced architectural patterns✅ Widget system with reusable components

• Learn about deployment strategies and DevOps basics

• Consider contributing to open-source projects✅ API integrations for all data sources - 💰 Cryptocurrency prices - Monitor digital currency trends

Learning Resources & References✅ Theme switching functionality

This project incorporates patterns and practices from various learning sources as I explore modern web development. The codebase reflects my ongoing journey in understanding React architecture, TypeScript best practices, and API integration techniques.✅ Drag and drop widget reordering - 💡 Daily inspiration - Motivational quotes to keep learning exciting

Development Notes✅ Responsive design implementation

• Built with React 19, TypeScript, and Vite🔄 Ongoing: Code optimization and feature refinements- 🎯 Drag & drop functionality

• Uses Tailwind CSS for styling and responsive design

• Integrates with multiple APIs for real-time data## 📄 License

• Implements modern React patterns and hooks

• Features accessible drag-and-drop functionalityThis project is licensed under the MIT License - see the LICENSE file for details.

This project represents my ongoing commitment to learning and improving as a web developer. Each feature added is a new skill learned, and every challenge overcome is progress in my journey.## 🙏 Acknowledgments
