strict limits or getting banned.

traditional fiat forex rates simultaneously.

Calculator Widget:** Includes an instant, client-side currency exchange
tool utilizing the live cached data feeds.

UI:** Designed with a stunning dark-mode aesthetic using Tailwind CSS.
Fully responsive and look beautiful across desktop, tablet, and mobile
screens.
- 🛠️ **Config-First Architecture:** Super easy for buyers
to customize. All API keys and tracked asset arrays are isolated in a
single file (`config.php`).

#### Server Prerequisites:
- PHP 7.4 or higher
- PDO Extension with SQLite Driver enabled (Standard on 99% of shared hosting and local setups like XAMPP)
- cURL Extension enabled

1. Extract the downloaded ZIP file archive.
2. Move the project folder into your server's root directory (e.g., 'public_html' on live hosting or 'htdocs' in XAMPP).
3. Open 'config.php' in any text editor and insert your free ExchangeRate-API key where prompted.
4. (Optional) Customize the '$tracked_crypto' and '$tracked_fiat' arrays in 'config.php' to add or remove your preferred currencies.
5. Navigate to the folder URL in your web browser. The system will automatically generate the local SQLite database ('database.db') and cache the initial API data on the very first load!
