    Why I built this App

    The main reason is "Learning by doing" — I learn best by hands-on experience, not just by reading or watching videos. Actually country information is a good size to experiment with - not too big, not too small, and there are many interesting public APIs to get data from. I also love traveling to know new places and people, so digging into data about countries is just fun for me 😉.

    Upcoming Features

    • 📈 Visualize data more e.g. chart and graph
    • ✨ Integrate economic data from public APIs
    • ⚛️ Migration from React to Next.js ... Now running in Next.js's SSG mode
    • End2End Test ... Done
