Adding a Logo Image to the Header

To add a logo image to the header:

1. Prepare your logo image file and place it in a suitable directory within your project, such as src/assets/logo.png.

2. Modify the Header.tsx component to include the Logo component with your image:

   import React from "react";
   import Logo from "./Logo"; // Import the Logo component
   import "./Header.css"; // Import your CSS file for header styles
   
   const Header: React.FC = () => {
     return (
       <header className="header">
         {/* Replace logoText with logoImageUrl */}
         <Logo logoImageUrl="path/to/your/logo.png" />
         <nav className="navbar">{/* Add your navigation links */}</nav>
       </header>
     );
   };
   
   export default Header;

   Ensure to update the Logo.tsx component and its corresponding CSS (Logo.css) to style the logo image appropriately.

Customizing Components and Styles

• Header, Footer, Sidebar, Navbar: Navigate to src/components to find these components. You can customize their appearance, add or remove items from the navbar, and adjust styles in their respective CSS files (Header.css, Footer.css, Sidebar.css, Navbar.css).

• Pages: Explore src/pages to find pre-built pages such as Home.tsx, About.tsx, and Contact.tsx. Customize these pages by modifying their content and styles (Home.css, About.css, Contact.css).

• Redux State Management: Modify the Redux store setup in src/store. Add new features or slices (src/features) as needed.
