I chose the IoT scrolling text display using NodeMCU because it showcases practical applications of IoT technology in a simple yet impactful way. It highlights real-time communication, remote control via Wi-Fi, and is an accessible project for learning about smart devices and embedded systems.

I found configuring the Wi-Fi connectivity challenging. I resolved it by thoroughly checking network credentials and using libraries like `WiFiManager` to simplify the connection process. Additionally, debugging through serial output helped identify and fix issues efficiently.

If I had more time, I would integrate a mobile app for easier text updates and add features like scheduled messages and remote brightness control. Additionally, I'd enhance the display with animations and multi-color LEDs for improved visual appeal.
