  Sorting Algorithm Visualizer – A React-Based Interactive Tool
&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hey devs! 👋  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I've built a &lt;strong&gt;React-based sorting algorithm visualizer&lt;/strong&gt; to make learning sorting algorithms more interactive and engaging. I'd love to get your feedback and contributions! 🚀  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;🔗 &lt;strong&gt;Live Demo:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="https://visualizers2025.vercel.app/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;Sorting Visualizer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
🔗 &lt;strong&gt;GitHub Repo:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="https://github.com/bakulbd/sorting-visualizer" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;GitHub Link&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🌟 Features
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;✅ Supports multiple sorting algorithms (Bubble Sort, Selection Sort, etc.)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
✅ Dynamic animations to illustrate how sorting works&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
✅ Adjustable speed and array size for better visualization&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
✅ Interactive UI for an engaging experience  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  💡 Why I Built This
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Sorting algorithms are fundamental in computer science, but understanding their step-by-step execution can be tricky. This project aims to make them more &lt;strong&gt;visual and easy to grasp&lt;/strong&gt;, especially for beginners.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🚀 How It Works
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Select an algorithm
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Adjust speed and array size
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Watch the sorting process in action with real-time animations
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🛠️ Tech Stack
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Frontend:&lt;/strong&gt; React, JavaScript, CSS
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;State Management:&lt;/strong&gt; useState, useEffect
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Deployment:&lt;/strong&gt; Vercel
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  ❗ Issue: Merge Sort Visualization
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’m currently facing an issue with &lt;strong&gt;Merge Sort visualization&lt;/strong&gt;. The algorithm is implemented, but the animation doesn't seem to work as expected. If anyone has experience handling recursive sorting visualizations in React, your insights would be really helpful! 🙌  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;
  
  
  🔍 Feedback &amp;amp; Contributions
&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I’d love to hear your thoughts!  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Performance:&lt;/strong&gt; How smooth is the animation on different devices?
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Usability:&lt;/strong&gt; Is the UI intuitive enough?
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Improvements:&lt;/strong&gt; Any features you'd like to see added?
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
