From the start, I wanted to create a platform that would spark curiosity and wonder in young minds. Throughout the project, I explored various design ideas and interactive elements to make sure the solar system was both informative and engaging for children.</p> <p><a href="https://solar-system-30vhn5hty-kritis-projects.vercel.app/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Link</a></p> <p><a href="https://github.com/karmakriti/solarSystem" rel="noopener noreferrer">Demo Link</a></p> <h2> Journey </h2> <p>One of the biggest challenges was balancing beautiful visuals with educational content. I learned to use vibrant colors, smooth animations, and easy navigation to make learning fun. </p> <p>I’m particularly proud of the interactive features, like clickable planets that share interesting facts and animations showing planetary orbits. These make complex astronomical ideas easier to understand and remember. </p> devchallenge frontendchallenge css javascript
