This pull request introduces a comprehensive visual and accessibility overhaul to the main UI components, focusing on improved aesthetics, enhanced animations, and better accessibility. The most significant updates include new CSS animations, a redesigned and more accessible Navbar, a more visually engaging Hero section, improved loading indicators, and accessibility and style improvements in the Footer.

UI/UX Enhancements and Animations:

  • Added new CSS keyframe animations (shimmer, fadeInUp, slideInRight) and utility classes to app/globals.css to enable animated UI effects across components.
  • Updated the Hero section with gradient backgrounds, shadow effects, animated entrances, and improved button and image styling for a more modern and interactive look.
  • Redesigned the loading spinner in Loading.jsx to support different sizes, optional fullscreen mode, animated bouncing dots, and customizable loading text.

Navigation and Accessibility Improvements:

  • Major refactor of Navbar.jsx:
    • Added a responsive mobile menu with animated open/close states and a toggle button.
    • Improved accessibility and focus styles for links and buttons.
    • Enhanced search functionality with better UX and input validation.
    • Updated cart badge styling for clarity and accessibility.
    • Unified button and link styles using the Button component.

Footer Accessibility and Style Updates:

  • Improved Footer.jsx with clearer focus states, better color contrast, and enhanced hover/focus/active feedback for links and social icons.
  • Added ARIA labels for social media links and updated color palette for better accessibility and visual consistency. [1] [2]

Component Imports and Structure:

  • Updated imports in Hero.jsx to use the shared Button component for consistent button styling.

These changes collectively modernize the application's look and feel, improve accessibility, and provide a more interactive and user-friendly experience.
