🕯️ A Tribute to the AI‑171 Crash Victims — Built with Just HTML & CSS

On June 12, 2025, Air India Flight AI‑171 tragically crashed in Ahmedabad.

Out of 270 people on board, only one person survived.

Like many others, I was deeply affected by the news.

As a frontend development student, I decided to use my skills to pay tribute — in the simplest but most heartfelt way I could.

✨ What I Used

• ✅ HTML for structure
• 🎨 CSS for design and responsiveness
• ☁️ GitHub Pages to host it for free

No JavaScript. No frameworks.

Just clean code and emotion.

🧠 My Thought Process

I asked myself:

• How can I design something respectful with no distractions?
• How can HTML & CSS alone carry the weight of emotion?
• What kind of layout calms the eyes, yet delivers a message?

I kept the colours subtle, the layout clean, and the typography soft.

There’s no noise — only tribute.

🔁 Final Words

Sometimes, we code to solve problems.

Other times, we code to honour people, tell stories, and offer a moment of silence in a digital world.
