Enable GitHub Pages:
Go to your repo: https://github.com/adjmx/nostr-message-hub
Settings → Pages → Source → Select "GitHub Actions"
Push to main branch:
git push origin main
Wait for deployment (1-2 minutes)
Check the Actions tab for progress

🔧 Technical Stack
React 18 - Modern UI framework

📊 Stats Tracking
The dashboard tracks these event kinds:
Kind 1: Text notes (Posts)
Kind 6 & 16: Reposts
Kind 7: Reactions (Likes)
Queries are optimized with:
Combined filters (single query for multiple kinds)
10-second timeout for reliability
30-second auto-refresh interval
🎯 What You Can Do Next
Customize Relays: Edit src/App.tsx to add your own relay
Change Colors: Update stat card colors in src/pages/Index.tsx
Add More Stats: Extend useRelayStats.ts to track more event kinds
Deploy: Push to GitHub and enable Pages
