@Macnelson9 has applied to work on this issue as part of the Stellar Wave Program's 2nd wave.

Hi team, I’d like to work on this issue.

I’m a Frontend Developer who thrives at the intersection of UI polish + product usability, and I’ve shipped responsive components/pages using Next.js/React + Tailwind (including interactions, animations, and pixel-accurate Figma builds).

What I’ll deliver

Developer onboarding documentation implemented to match the design/spec

Responsive behavior (mobile + desktop), no layout breakage

Hover/focus states + accessible semantics

Clean, reusable components and consistent styling

Approach

Review the design/spec and existing code patterns

Build the UI + interactions

QA on multiple breakpoints + open a PR with screenshots/video

If assigned, I’ll start immediately and share progress updates in the PR.
