+#  Kubernetes Monitoring Stack with Node.js, Prometheus, Grafana, and GitHub Actions
 
 This project demonstrates a complete monitoring-enabled deployment pipeline for a containerized Node.js application using Kubernetes, Prometheus, and Grafana. CI/CD is fully automated with GitHub Actions, and deployments are tested locally using Minikube.

-## ✅ Project Highlights
+##  Project Highlights
 
-* 🟢 **Node.js Application**: Lightweight backend service written in Node.js, exposing basic endpoints for monitoring.
-* 🐳 **Dockerized**: Fully containerized using Docker with a production-ready `Dockerfile`.
-* ☘️ **Kubernetes Native**: Application and observability stack deployed via Kubernetes manifests, including Deployments, Services, and Persistent Volumes.
-* 📊 **Prometheus Integration**: Configured to scrape metrics from the application with a custom `prometheus.yml`.
-* 📈 **Grafana Dashboards**: Set up to visualize key application and cluster metrics with persistent storage.
-* 🤖 **CI/CD with GitHub Actions**: Automated pipeline builds and pushes Docker images to Docker Hub on every commit to `main`.
-* 🧰 **Minikube Deployment**: Manual deployment workflow using Minikube for local development and testing.
