✨ Luxe Hair Studio – Appointment Booking App

A beautifully designed hair studio booking system featuring AWS App Runner deployment, Docker, and a fully automated CI/CD pipeline powered by GitHub Actions.

🚀 CI/CD Pipeline – Fully Automated

Whenever you push to the main branch:

1. GitHub Actions builds your Docker image

2. Pushes the image to Amazon ECR

3. App Runner pulls the new image and deploys automatically

🔍 Pipeline in action:

• Open GitHub repo → Actionstab

• See the workflow: “Deploy to AWS App Runner”

• Make any small change (e.g., update text or a color), push it — the app redeploys automatically!
