I believe my project comes under the the category of "Wacky Wildcards". Build a random app that doesnโ€™t fit into one of the categories above.

App Link ๐Ÿ“ฑ

Anyone can access this fun project, hosted on gh-pages via gh-actions here.

Background (What made you decide to build this particular app? What inspired you?)

I was bored and wanted to learn something fun, silly and useless. So I made this this so that everyone can experience this feeling.๐Ÿ˜Ž

How I built it

I used gh-actions in this project to build it and deploy on the gh-pages branch.

I did learn how to build tailwindcss using gh-actions and also how to push these build to gh-pages branch.
