Space Tourism Website using React and Tailwind CSS

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

I am most proud that I was able to complete this project earlier than I expected. Finishing ahead of schedule gave me a huge confidence boost and showed me how much I’ve grown in my skills, especially in React and Tailwind CSS.

If I were to do anything differently next time, I would focus more on the deployment process earlier on. While building locally was smooth, I learned that deploying to platforms like GitHub Pages has its own set of challenges. Next time, I would make deployment part of my workflow earlier, so I can catch configuration or asset issues sooner. I would also invest more time in testing different screen sizes and edge cases to make sure the project is even more polished and user-friendly across all devices.

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

One of the main challenges I encountered was deploying the project. I was already familiar with deploying simple HTML sites to GitHub Pages, but deploying a React application was very different and more complex than I expected. I ran into issues like broken file paths and assets not loading correctly because React apps require a proper build process and specific configurations for GitHub Pages. To overcome this, I spent time researching best practices for deploying React projects.
