Milestone Project 02: Interactive Frontend Development

Royal Touristz - Travel Website

View the live project here.

This is the Interactive Frontend Development project for Full Stack Software Developement course. I decided to make travel website because it has more scope to use JavaScript. It is designed to be responsive and accessible on a range of devices, making it easy to navigate for potential visitors and customers.
