Why I Chose Frontend Development — And What I’ve Learned So Far

👋 Hello, World!
Hi, I’m Harsh — a Frontend Developer who’s just getting started on this exciting journey of building the web. This is my very first blog post, and I wanted to begin by sharing why I chose frontend development, what I’ve learned so far, and what I hope to achieve in the world of web development.

🎯 Why Frontend?
Frontend development clicked for me the moment I realized I could create real, interactive websites that people actually use. I love how the frontend combines logic and creativity — allowing me to build visually appealing UIs while solving real-world problems.

Watching a design come to life in the browser, styled with Tailwind CSS or animated with React, gives me a rush no other field has. I enjoy turning ideas into interfaces — ones that are responsive, accessible, and easy to use.

💡 Real-Life Problems, Real-Life Solutions
I don’t want to just write code that works — I want to write code that helps. Whether it’s simplifying a confusing user experience, improving performance, or making a site more accessible, I’m driven by the idea of solving problems people face every day on the web.

Recently, I built a portfolio website from scratch using React and Tailwind. I faced challenges like managing component layout on mobile screens and creating reusable components, but solving those taught me more than any tutorial ever could.

🙌 Let's Connect!
If you're also on a frontend journey, I'd love to connect, learn, and grow together. Feel free to drop a comment, share tips, or just say hi!

Thanks for reading! 💙
