What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

What I Am Most Proud Of...

• Implemented a clean, component-based architecture that separates concerns well (Header, Hero, Features, Articles, Footer components).
• Maintained Responsive Design Principles.

What I Would Do Differently Next Time...

• Use a Frontend Framework such as modern React + TypeScript stack with Tailwind CSS.
• Use modern tooling including Vite for fast development, proper TypeScript configuration, and a full-stack setup with Express backend.
• Integrate modern UI components using Radix UI primitives for accessibility.
• earlier Add proper error boundaries and loading states.
• Implement proper image optimization and lazy loading from the start.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Challenges I Faced & How I Overcome Them...

• Responsive Design Challenges:
  Translating CSS Grid and Flexbox layouts to Tailwind CSS utility classes

My Solution:
Systematically converted each section while maintaining responsive breakpoints and design consistency

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Some Specific Areas Needing Support:

1. Performance Optimization:

• Image optimization strategy for the hero mockup images.
• Bundle size analysis and code splitting implementation.
• Proper lazy loading for article images and components below the fold.

2. Animation and Micro-interactions:

• Implementing smooth scroll animations using Framer Motion.
• Adding hover states and transitions that match the design system.
• Creating engaging loading states for better UX.

Some Code Specific Questions:

1. Are there any best practices for handling the hero section's complex background positioning across different screen sizes???
2. What is the Optimal way to structure the articles data - should it come from a CMS or API???
